All 3rd through 12th Grade Boys and Girls House teams will now participate in our winter season, with all GIRLS GRADES 5/6, GIRLS GRADES 7/8, AND OUR HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS NOW PLAYING IN THE NORTHWEST SUBURBAN BASKETBALL LEAGUE.  

Welcome to the 2019 RAYBA 4K Shot Challenge!  There is no cost to participate in this challenge, just a desire to become the best shooter you can be.  Proper form and consistency should be top priorities while engaging in this challenge.

The challenge is open to all boys and girls entering grades 4th through 8th grade in September 2019.

All participants who make (and chart) 4,000 made shots during the summer of 2019 , will receive a T-Shirt to commemorate their accomplishment.  On top of this, each player who completes this challenge will be entered into a drawing for Timberwolves tickets!

Please only complete the registration once the challenge has been completed

All registrations must be accompanied by a completed shot chart, which should be uploaded along with the registration.  If you have any trouble uploading the chart, please email it as an attachment to chris.lidberg@rayba.org.
