Attention all Co-ed Girls and Boys, U11-U19 Silver Knights Players/Parents (Grades 5 to grade 12 only, players born from 2008 to 2015):

If you are staying in town during the March Break and are looking to keep your basketball skills sharp, then Silver Knights may have something for you.

The Silver Knights Basketball Club will be hosting a MARCH BREAK OPEN GYM exclusively for Silver Knight players, Monday March 16th to Friday March 20th, 2026.

The Club has secured the large triple gym at St. Augustine CHS in Markham (2188 Rodick Road, Markham, ON L6C 1S3 – Woodbine and 16th Avenue area)

As a member of the Silver Knights Basketball Club (or friend of a member), you will be able to register for a 3-hour block in the morning; 8:30am-11:30am, or a 3-hour block in the afternoon; 12:30pm-3:30pm for one, two or up to all five days of the March Break.  Note: Only one 3-hour time slot per day per player, morning or afternoon, and not both (allowing more players to take part and enjoy this daily experience).

The gymnasiums will be supervised, and the number of players per session will be limited to a maximum of 36 players per session only, to ensure that every player has access to a basket. The cost for a 3-hour session is only $10. You must register in advance, online only.  Drop-ins will not be allowed.

While the school board gyms are closed and all weeknight and weekend training is unavailable, players can still keep their basketball skills sharp with this week-long Open Gym and do it for a very reasonable cost ($10 per 3-hour morning or afternoon block, up to 5 sessions possible per player).

So just don’t sit around during March Break working on your screen time, get in the gym, have some fun with friends/teammates and work on your game!  Hope to see you on the court!!
