Students must try out with their zoned high school and attend a Bentonville Public School to be eligible. Bentonville Youth Athletics prepares basketball players for both high schools and the programs operate independently under the guidance and philosophies of the BHS and BWHS high school coaches.
We hold tryouts every September that are facilitated by the BHS and BWHS coaches. Bentonville Youth Athletics evaluates and ranks players individually on specific skills and the top 8-10 players are selected to form a team (depending on registration there may be more than one team per grade).
Team rosters will be posted on our website. Like our Facebook page and follow for updates.
Tuition varies each year for competitive players (includes tournament fees, uniform, and shooting shirt). Please see staff at tryouts for the current year's rate. Payment is due prior to the first practice to secure a spot on the team/program. Scholarship applications will be available after rosters are announced.
Teams will practice 2-3 times per week in BPS gyms. You will be contacted by your coach after rosters are announced with exact days/times. Games are played at Arkansas Athletes Outreach in Fayetteville & Rogers. The season runs from November-February concluding with a single elimination tournament at the end of the year. The High School coaches encourage Bentonville Youth Athletics players to attend as many Tigers and Wolverines home games as possible.

We are a competitive league. The coaches will do their best to play each person, but we do not have minimum play time guarantees.
