Hello, Hoop District Family.

I want to personally welcome you all to our 5th season of basketball at Nativity Church and School. While basketball is the event that brings us together, over the past four years we have created a community of ballers. Whether you are a Catholic, a Muslim, a Chrisitan, a Jew, Agnostic, Buddhist or non-practicing faith, black, white, asian, haitan, hispanic, fillipino or anything in between, all of that is left at the door. The only thing that matters when you walk into the Father Martin Cetner is that we create fellowship through basketball.

I expect for you to treat each other with respect and dignity, to keep your tempers in check and to watch you language. We have a no-curse rule and while it may be new to some of you, you'll get the hang quickly.

Our season starts on September 9th and 11th. Details about gameplay, rules, subs, etc. will be sent out the week before the season starts. If you have any questions please reach out to your captains.

Congrats to our Season IV champions, Hustle and Flow and to our stat leaders and award winners from last season...
