As of 8/18/24:

Registration is expected to open late this coming week. Please check back regularly to stay informed, and/or follow us on X at:  @CYBL_Chelmsford

LATE FEE: Players may still register AFTER November 1, 2024, but they will be charged an additional $25 late fee in addition to the standard registration fee. 

NOTE: The earlier a player registers, the more likely CYBL will be able to place him/her in a CYBL division. Placement in a CYBL division is not guaranteed – it is based on division total capacity and is done on a first registered, first-placed basis.

Before registering to play in CYBL, please review the PLAYER ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS.

PLEASE NOTE: You must pay at the time you register online with a valid credit card or valid debit card.

If you can not register online and/or pay by credit or debit card, please contact the CYBL Treasurer at cybltreasurer@gmail.com to discuss your situation.

Mites, Cadets and Juniors practice one evening during the week and have a game each Saturday during the season.

Mini-Mites are Saturday only.   

REGISTRATION SEQUENCE: ALL Players interested in trying out for TRAVEL basketball must FIRST register in the appropriate INTRAMURAL Division before tryouts. Players only interested in playing INTRAMURAL (“In-Town”) basketball have until November 1 to register, however, the divisions may fill up prior to that date.  

LATE FEE: Beginning November 1, 2024, registrations for ALL Divisions will be assessed a late fee of $25. 

TRAVEL TEAM SELECTION/FEES: As stated above, ALL players interested in playing on a Travel Team must first register in the appropriate INTRAMURAL division prior to tryouts.

After Travel Teams are selected in Early October, one additional fee will be required by December 1st. This fee is $325 for the 2024-2025 season

FAMILY MAXIMUM PAYMENTS: INTRAMURAL ONLY PLAYERS: There is a $400 maximum fee per family for families who only register Intramural participants. In order to have this maximum fee charged automatically at the time of registration, ALL players must be registered in the same online registration session.

FAMILIES with TRAVEL and INTRAMURAL PLAYERS: There is a $1,000 maximum fee per family for those families who have participants in both the Intramural and Travel programs. Because of the method and timing in which Travel Team Players are selected, final resolution of the family maximum payment typically involves a discussion with the CYBL Treasurer.

NOTE: Family Maximum Payment Calculations do NOT Include Merchandise Purchases.

Several Registration Questions and Answers:

Why is CYBL bugging me about registering for a WINTER basketball league in July, August and September?!

In order to recruit coaches and form teams that are as evenly matched as possible, CYBL first needs to know how many kids are registered (registration closes mid-September for TRAVEL tryouts and at the end of October for INTRAMURAL divisions). We hold tryouts for the TRAVEL Teams in late September (TRAVEL Team practices begin in mid October).

Once TRAVEL Team players are selected, CYBL Division Directors then form preliminary INTRAMURAL (“in-town”) division teams and run evaluation scrimmages or use some other means in early/mid-November to see if the teams in their divisions are evenly matched. Adjustments are made to team rosters based on those scrimmages/evaluations, and voila, it’s early December and time to play the first INTRAMURAL division games of the season!

Why should I register as soon as possible?

Based on previous seasons, CYBL has estimates of the number of INTRAMURAL division teams and players we can support in each division. Once we reach those numbers in each division, we have to start putting players on wait lists. And because the only fair way to run CYBL is on a first-come, first-served basis, the earlier a player registers, the more likely it is that the player will be placed on a team and not end up on a waiting list.
