Calgary Selects is one of the most affordable club basketball teams in the city.  we are non-profit and run a casino every 2nd year to keep our programs affordable. 
the current state of the economy has changed costs for gym rentals, insurance, mandatory per player provincial Basketball registration and everything from basketballs to jerseys.  we are currently evaluating these costs, and will soon post the cost for the Spring 2023 club basketball season. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We follow the age eligibility rules of the Calgary Minor Basketball Association. The age of the player is determined by the age of the player as of December 31 of that year. I.e. Player A born January 20 of 2008 is eligible for U15 the 2023 spring season. Player B born December 20 of 2008 is also eligible as a U15 player for the 2023 season.
All age groups assignements will be confirmed by Calgary Selects basketball.

Season fees for all teams will go to covering the cost of the following:
– Game/practice uniform (top and bottoms)
– practices
– Selects pre-game clothing
– 1 league game per week
The season fees also cover the cost of tournaments for all age groups where available:
An average spring CLUB season spans early-March to early-July.
Season fees do not cover travel expenses. All travel expenses (ie. gas and accommodations) for out-of-town tournaments are the sole responsibility of the player and their families.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Calgary Selects Basketball Club is a registered non-profit organization. Season fees are subsidized by the AGLC from Casino Volunteer Nights that are made possible by parent and coach volunteers. That’s why the Calgary Selects are able to offer some of the lowest season fees of any basketball club in the Calgary-region.
As a result, we are unable to offer financial aid or scholarships to players. The season fees are specifically calculated for an individual player, and as a matter of policy, we feel it is unfair for players and their families to pay inflated fees in order to subsidize other players.
Practices for all teams are expected to begin in early-March. Club dates will be determined after tryouts, currently expected to be weeks of Feb 27 and March 6, 2023
Due to regulations set forth by the Alberta Schools’ Athletic Association, High School aged teams cannot begin the official tryout process until the commencement of the Alberta High School Basketball Provincials.
