The roots of basketball had its origin with the YMCA. Dr. James Naismith at the YMCA's Springfield College, IL, invented basketball in 1892. Since then, the YMCA has been our nation's largest organized basketball program each year. Many of today's College and NBA players started in the Y. However, the Y's basketball program is much more than winning and losing games.     Program Fees $30 YMCA Member $50 Community Member 2nd Child $5 Discount Available Space is Limited! Sign up Today!
