Be on the lookout for future leagues forming - Click Upcoming Programs for more info!

If you do not see a drop down menu under this sport to the left, including Schedules & Standings or Upcoming Programs, please re-enter BUFFALO in the Select Your City drop down menu and then click Basketball for full menu. Call us 800-948-0290 with any questions.

Whether you have a team, a group of up to three (3), or are signing up by yourself, we will get you on the court for the upcoming season.

If you are signing up as an individual, you can register online and we will contact you regarding height, age, preferred position and level of experience. If you mail or fax in registration, please include that information. Each season, we take all of the individual registrations and form new teams based on a mini-draft of available players to spread out positions, height and experience.

Full teams are always welcome to register. Please note that you will need to have numbered shirts for this league on/by Week 2 of the regular season.

Sports Monster basketball is offered in four (4) skill levels:

• Recreational: The recreational league is a great way to get into the game. Typically, recreational players sign up after being away from the game for awhile. Recreational teams many times come to play indoors after playing softball, football or ultimate and want to keep the gang together for fun.
  
  
• Intermediate: Are you six-foot or under? Do you have decent skills but not quite up to competitive? Are you looking to get out on the courts to just shoot a few threes? Then the Intermediate level is for you.
  
  The guys and gals in this league can drain the occasional three, run fast-breaks pretty good and are out there to have a good time. Teams are a mixture of skilled and recreational players or overall intermediate skills.
  
  
• Competitive: Sports Monster`s Competitive level is our best competitive level. Players comfortable in a high school or college level will enjoy the play here.
  
  All areas of the game: passing, shooting, defense are played well but each team will have one or two areas of weakness or inconsistency that may be taken advantage of. There are no unskilled players at this level, some college experience players but the majority are IM, club or high school experienced players who execute and understand the game well.
  
  Competitive level players understand how to run plays and can successfully execute the x`s and o`s of the game. In tournaments, this is the only level to have paid officials
  
  
• Open: Our open level means that it is open to both the competitive and intermediate levels. We offer this level so that either skill level can join. Once a league with an open skill level starts to fill, we will set it as intermediate or competitive.
