Saturday, March 7 | 10 am – 2:30 pm
Lawrence YMCA
40 Lawrence Street, Lawrence
Parents and loved ones are invited to join us for the Kimball Classic, our exciting end-of-season celebration for all Pre-K and Kindergarten Youth Basketball League (YBL) teams from Andover/North Andover, Methuen, and Lawrence!
Each team will play one cross-league game against a team from another branch, giving our youngest athletes a fun opportunity to showcase what they’ve learned this season.
Every player will receive a commemorative t-shirt and medal, and each team will present a sportsmanship award to one player to recognize outstanding teamwork and a positive attitude. After each game, families are invited to stay and celebrate with a pizza party!
