Westview Girls Youth Basketball

COVID-19 / Program Updates

Hi, Westview Basketball Families! Your WGYB Board has been meeting and continues to discuss and track the possibilities for our girls to be able to participate in some form of league basketball and/or additional skills training this year. Please check back and we will keep the latest info posted here, starting with the SUMMER CAMP hosted by Westview High School Coaches & Players in June...other local camp and clinic options are posted below!

Thanks for your patience and keep encouraging your girls to stay active!

Westview Girls Youth Development Program (YDP)

Welcome! We are a parent-run non profit 501(c)(3) organization formed to provide a more competitive option to recreational basketball within the Westview High School boundaries of Portland, Oregon.

Our goal is to develop youth athletes in a safe and competitive environment. We collaborate closely with Westview High School's girls coaches to help prepare girls grades 5th to 8th to play high school basketball.

Our organization consists of highly dedicated parent board members, volunteer coaches, High School coaches, and passionate community volunteers!

Our program is successful when we receive strong support from the community. If you are interested in joining in any capacity or if you want to make donations, please contact us - information is below!

PLEASE CHECK BACK OFTEN FOR THE LATEST INFORMATION!

GO C.A.T.S.!

Confidence. Ability. Toughness. Support.

Basketball Skill Development ~ Summer 2021

Over the coming weeks and months, our hope is that our communities are able to get back connected to activities they enjoy together, including more opportunities for open gyms -- thankful for the June Camp that was recently hosted by our very own High School Coaches & Players, as well as the Spring Training sessions our parent coaches led at the Hoop!

Since our umbrella organization, the Metro Youth Development Program, uses BSD school gyms for practice we are carefully following the facility re-opening progress with OSAA, the school district as well as guidance from the Oregon Health Authority.

Although the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the closure and cancellation of many things over the past year, some basketball programs are still hoping to be able to host events this summer. Linked below are several organizations in our local area--please check their refund policies carefully as you consider what feels comfortable for your family.

Please contact us if you know of any local basketball options we have not yet posted...stay safe and well, and hope to see you all back on the courts very soon....GO CATS!
