Monrovia Parks & Recreation Association Inc

Basketball program: the basketball program was introduced in 1995 with an enrollment of 258 players. It was very hard to get coaches the first year. After securing basketball gyms from the local county school to play games and practice, the season was about to get off to a fledging start. If we could just find referees. Our local baseball group, the monrovia umpire association came to our rescue. They enrolled enough high school referees to call all of our games and the season was started. The first year we were able to play all of our games in the 3 lower grade school gyms and the madison county coliseum gym. The program has grown to the level where each season we register around 535 boys and girls. We now play in 6 gyms, 4 furnished by local schools and 2 by the monrovia community center. Last year we had 8 teams go to district tournaments and 6 teams went to state tournament. The basketball rules foster fair play, good sportsmanship, and ensures every child gets plent of playing time. During registration the parents must sign and adult code of conduct policy.
