MVBA Community,

As expected, Governor Walz announced a four week “pause” in all youth sports due to the increasing number of COVID cases within our state. Therefore, we will be suspending our in-house and travel basketball seasons immediately until further notice. Our hope is that practices will be able to resume on Monday, January 4, 2021, with competitions resuming on Saturday, January 9, 2021.

We will continue to monitor the situation and will follow the guidance of the Center for Disease Control and the Minnesota Department of Health if/when we are allowed to return to the court.

We hope that you and your family stay healthy!

Should you have any questions, please feel free to email mvbabasketball@gmail.com. 

We are currently working to secure a zoom training partner to keep every player engaged and improving their skills during the COVID-19 Season Pause. Check back here soon for more details - we will also email training opportunities out to the MVBA community.

Be Safe! 

The MVBA Board is closely monitoring the current situation with youth sports and COVID-19. At this time, we are hoping to be able to compete in tournaments (for traveling basketball) and the North Metro In-House Basketball League (for in-house programming).

The constantly changing state of the COVID-19 pandemic will require flexibility as we continue to work with school district officials and follow any safety guidance and best practices provided by the CDC and the Minnesota Department of Health.

Due to the uncertain nature of this year’s season, the MVBA Board has developed the following documents you'll find below:

• COVID-19 Decision Tree to Attend Practice/Games 
• COVID-19 Preparedness Plan
• COVID-19 Cancellation Refund Policy
• COVID-19 FAQs

We understand that there are more questions regarding this year’s season than we likely have answers for at this time. We will continue to update the FAQ document as more information is made available.

If you have any questions regarding the upcoming season, please do not hesitate to email them to mvbabasketball@gmail.com. 

Thank you for your understanding, patience, and flexibility as we move forward with our 2020-2021 season.

Season Paused - Stay tuned for more info at the end of the year!

Below is the current most active schedule for Week 1 and 2 (games staring 11-14-2020). Due to gym space and COVID related facility changes - please check back often for the most up to date changes to the schedule.

The  Minneapolis metro area experiences major winter storm warnings throughout the year.

We ask that coaches, players, and parents use their best judgement on whether or not to make it to practice. 

As a reminder - All practices/games are considered ON unless the District decides to shut down the building. 

If the District shuts down facilities and cancels events, the MVBA will send out a mass email, contact the coaches, and post it on the HOME page of our website.

Here are a few great camps that the MN Heat are putting on over the Fall and Winter season that do not conflict with our MVBA season.

The Mounds View Basketball Association (MVBA) provides an opportunity for Boys & Girls to play, compete, and learn the game of basketball in an environment that emphasizes FUN, fundamentals, teamwork, sportsmanship, and development.

Although winning is fun, we believe winning is not an objective - 

Winning is an outcome of dedication and commitment to team, hard work, and constant learning.

Always be a student of the Game
