Welcome to the homepage for Above The Rim LI.
Welcome to Above the Rim, Long Island’s best and most organized Men’s Basketball league. Entry fee is $800 per team with an additonal $35 per game for referee fee. Customized reversible jerseys of each players desired size and number can be ordered for an additional $15 each. A season will consist of 8 regular season games and playoffs, with every team qualifying for the playoffs. Each round of the playoffs consists of a single elimination game. *The champion from each division will recieve medals, towels, one trophy and a discount of $250 off the team's league fee for the following season!* Each season will also consist of an All-Star game, in which players are selected by the league office based on stats and regular season performance. At the All-Star game we will hold a 3pt shooting contest made up of the league’s best shooters. Prizes will be given to the MVP of the game and to the winner of the 3pt shooting contest.
At Above the Rim we will diligently record stats including; points, rebounds, assists and three pointers made. All stats and box scores will be posted online daily for all players to view and compare. Games are currently played Sunday through Thursday. Scheduling will be as flexible as possible but teams must be able to compromise in order to provide the best compeition avaliable.
Above the Rim has **ZERO TOLERANCE FOR FIGHTING** as it is our goal to make this an enjoyable experience for all who play. We are committed to running our league in an organized and classy fashion and are committed to providing our players with a basketball experience superior to that of any other leagues on the Island. This is a Men’s league and we expect our players to act like men and treat all referees and fellow players with respect. The gyms we currently operate out of are the LI SportsPlex, William Floyd High School, Mercy High School, the Patchouge YMCA and Upper Room Christian school in Dix Hills. We are always looking to add more gyms to accomodate our growing number of teams. Please act like adults and treat our home gyms with respect so that we can keep Above the Rim playing at these facilities.
We hope that your experience with Above the Rim remains a positive one and that you continue to spread the word about what our league has to offer. New recruits are always welcome and if you have any questions or concerns feel free to email us at abovetherimli@yahoo.com
