Competitive Levels: Two competitive levels are available in ALL levels of play above the Rookies. The "A" division is intended to be of a higher competitive level for the more experienced players, while the "B" division is designed to be developmental in nature.

Instructional League: This program is designed as an introduction to basketball for 7&8 year old boys. The emphasis is on the instruction of skills. The core of the program is regional clinics conducted on Saturday mornings.

Coaches: All of our Coaches are volunteers and are selected by the Basketball Administrator. Coaches are then approved by vote of the Association board. Additionally all coaches must pass a Chesterfield Background check. Dates for getting the background will be posted on our association calendar.

Games: are played played in various gyms around Chesterfield only. This is not a travel league. Typically, each level will play all of its games in the same gym.

Practice: Each team is allotted weekly practice time at local school gyms subject to availability. Practices are between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. The league provides each association with practice locations and times. The association determines team actual practice times and locations from there.

Our Instructional level will practice one night per week. All other levels will get two nights. We set the practice times so that the younger teams practice earliest.

Season: Pre-season practice begins in November, and the final game is played around the middle of March.

Games:  Most games are played on Saturdays and Sundays beginning the first Saturday after New Years and extend until the beginning of March for boys. Game schedules are typically distributed by the League during the week prior to the first game. Please note: the Hening Athletic Association does not set up the game schedules.

Playing Time: Coaches will abide by the league rules regarding playing time. Playing time rules differ based on the competitive level of the team your player is on.

Post Season Play: All teams participate in a post-season tournament except the Instructional team. The type of tournament, single or double elimination will be determined by level of play, record, age group etc.
