Explore parent / child classes, youth basketball clinics, and youth basketball winter league, offered at the Berkeley and Oakland Fitness Centers.
Our youth sports programs are designed to help kids of all skill levels fall in love with sports, stay active, and develop foundational basketball skills in a fun, inclusive, and supportive environment. We focus on teaching fundamentals and basic rules while emphasizing the YMCA core values of Honesty, Respect, Responsibility, and Caring.
Most of our clinics are basketball, but we like to add in soccer and other sports where we can!
How Our Seasons / Sessions Work:
Sessions are typically four weeks with four weekend classes, and run twice per season (Summer 1, Summer 2, Fall 1, Fall 2, etc). In the winter, we offer 1 four week session, followed by a winter youth basketball league running Jan-March. Spring sessions begin once winter league has concluded.
Registration for the 2026 YMCA Youth Winter Basketball League is officially OPEN.
Players of all skill levels can join a team to improve their skills and have fun in a supportive and structured league environment. We offer 3 Leagues for Boys & Girls. Winter League practices and games are held weekly beginning Jan 5 through Mar 14, 2026.
