Dear SEES Basketball parents,

Over the past few days we have received word that both the Governor and the Diocese of Richmond are in support of league basketball play. We have also learned that a few of our fellow Catholic schools will be joining us in league play as well. What does this mean for SEES? It means that we can now pivot back to our original plans for grade level basketball in both the Benedictine and St. Gertrude Leagues.

We will be hosting intrasquad scrimmages this Friday to determine an A team at the 7th/8th grade boys level as well as evaluating the remaining 7th/8th grade boys and the 5th and 6th grade boys so that we can make sure that the teams are fair. All new grade level teams will be sent out per Teamsnap on Friday afternoon. Below you will find the breakdown of league divisions and game times for this Friday. Some teams will not be playing this Friday, but will be scheduled at a later date. Unfortunately, due to our gym size and Covid-19 restrictions we will only be allowing coaches and players into the gym for games. Also, please note that if you have not had a practice yet, please be patient as coaches are still working out their schedules.
