U15 DIVISION (Travel Team)


Our U15 program is designed for players who want to elevate their game to a higher level of skill and competition. Athletes will refine advanced techniques in shooting, ball-handling, passing, and defense, while developing a deeper understanding of team strategies and game tactics.

The focus is on challenging players to compete at a faster pace, think critically on the court, and strengthen leadership and teamwork skills. U15 is a crucial step in preparing athletes for elite play, helping them transition from foundational skills to a more competitive basketball environment.

U15 Notes
Friday Nights: For the 2025-2026 season, CMBA has advised that Friday night games may occur occasionally due to gym availability in Calgary.

Grade 9 Consideration: Grade 9 players who make their high school team may continue playing with AMBA. ASAA allows participation in both community and JV programs (but not SV)—check with your school for details. Grade 9 players should consider their time commitment carefully. If leaving AMBA due to high school commitments, refunds are not provided. If a team folds due to player departures, remaining players receive a pro-rated refund (see our Refund policy).

Team Formation
Teams are created based on player skill and evaluation results. The AMBA Team Formation Committee places players where they can learn, grow, and get maximum court time. Requests for specific teams or teammates are not accepted. Teams are grouped by similar skill to ensure a fun and competitive season.

Games
U15 games are played in Calgary through CMBA and can be in any quadrant of the city. Games are scheduled by CMBA, not AMBA. Important dates are listed on the Season and Program Information page.

Practices
Practices are primarily in Airdrie, with occasional locations in Crossfield or Balzac. Days and times depend on coach and school availability and may change each season. Practice nights are kept as consistent as possible, but schedules may vary—check the weekly schedule regularly.
