Plainfield Junior Basketball League

Welcome to the Plainfield Junior Basketball League Homepage

The 2022/2023 Plainfield Junior Basketball League Season is here! For the first time ever, we will be hosting a Kindergarten league! Registration is now open for all grade levels: 1st/2nd grade, 3rd/4th grade, 5th/6th grade, and 7th/8th grade. We are happy to announce the return of the High School Leage this year (9th-12th)!

The Plainfield Junior Basketball League is designed for students at Plainfield Community Schools and/or kids who live in the Town of Plainfield. Students in grades Kindergarten through 12th are welcome to participate in the program. Teams are divided into six age groups: Kindergartners, 1st & 2nd graders, 3rd & 4th graders, 5th & 6th graders, 7th & 8th graders, and 9th-12th graders. The program is operated as a co-ed league where the girls and boys will play against one another. The season begins in November and ends late February. The Plainfield Junior Basketball League is set up to be a recreational basketball league and is intended to be fun for all participants while they learn and develop their skills in the game of basketball. The Plainfield Junior Basketball League will be conducted on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturdays, and Sundays; however, is subject to change based on participation levels
