Additional Summer camp opportunities:
Besides camps, skills sessions and participating on AAU teams, a great way for a player to improve their skills is by simply practicing and playing. Shoot as often as you can and find friends or family members to play 1v1, 2v2 or 3v3 with and against. Keep basketball fun and find ways to be creative while improving skills and fundamentals.
We respect those that came before,
We play with those we stand beside
We are the example for those to come
DCBC is a competitive girls youth basketball program preparing athletes for Dowling Catholic High School basketball.
Dowling Catholic Basketball Club commits to:
We know there are many questions about what will DCBC do during the Corona Virus Pandemic to keep my daughter safe. At this time, there are no screening/masking precautions that will be implemented. DCBC will continue to monitor the COVID-19 numbers and make changes as needed and recommended by national and local health authorities. As always, if you feel more comfortable having your daughter wear a mask during tryouts/practices/games that is fine.
DCBC will be outfitting all of our coaches again this season with a "COVID" prepared kit in an effort to do all WE can to help minimize the spread.
Please note that our policies may change as the season progresses and we learn more about new recommendations from local, state and national health organizations. If you have any questions or concerns that are not addressed, please feel free to contact Pati Berger (DCBC board president at bergerpm@hotmail.com) or Kristin Meyer (kmeyer@dowlingcatholic.org).
Players that are "sick" and unable to attend school are also unable to attend DCBC activities. Players may return to DCBC activities once they have been allowed to return to school.
