York South Silver Knights Basketball – Richmond Hill Markham York Region Unionville Club prides itself in offering a superior level of skill development at all program levels. All our programs, including our house leagues, are directed and coached by certified OBA instructors.

No parental volunteers are involved in coaching our house league teams, as we hire select passionate Sr. High school rep players and university students to coach our teams.

This developmental grassroots instructional program is intended to bring the “joy of basketball” to our youngest boy and girl basketeers from junior kindergarten to grade 2. OBA certified coaches direct our school in order that fundamentals are taught in a sequential progression to each individual child while maintaining a fun and exciting atmosphere.

A high instructor to participant ratio is present in order to maintain excellence.  We offer two programs:

  1.  Markham location – Girls Got Court: Regular 5 on 5 girls only basketball league
  2.  Richmond Hill Location – NEW Girls Only Small Group Skills Training with 3-on-3 League Play to end each session

All of our Junior (grade 4 to 6) and Intermediate (grade 7 to 9) Girls Leagues are comprised of 45 to 60 minutes of direct basketball instruction, followed by a house league game. It is in this manner that participants who have never played the game in a semi-competitive atmosphere are exposed to the correct manner and foundation skills in which to play this wonderful game called basketball. Each season culminates with a championship tournament, where trophies and awards are given.

** All Junior Girls and Intermediate Girls Got Court House League Games in Markham are Refereed by OBA York Region Officials **
