DEERFIELD FEEDER (BOYS 3RD-8TH GRADE)

overview

The Deerfield Young Warriors (DFYW) feeder program is a basketball program for the Deerfield community that is proudly supported by the Deerfield High School Basketball leadership. Dan McKendrick, Deerfield High School Varsity Coach, supports the Deerfield Young Warriors program. The Young Warriors program offers teams for 3rd through 8th grade boys and is designed to provide players with an advanced and challenging environment to help prepare them to play competitive basketball against other local feeder programs. The Young Warriors program develops our youth basketball players on and off the court; ultimately preparing them for high school as well as growing the Deerfield Basketball Community.

We’re working more closely than ever with the Deerfield High School program
John Lyons, DFYW Founder and Director for over 30 years, handed over the day-to-day responsibilities of running the program to Billy Welcome and ALL IN Athletics last year. Johnny Lyons, the son of John Lyons and longtime member of the Deerfield community, is the Director of Basketball and has helped foster a tight connection to the Deerfield High School program, from X's and O's consistency to overall philosophy and values.

Introduction to DHS Basketball! -

  • We practice on Deerfield High School basketball courts –– this not only offers a unique and inspiring environment but also allows players to familiarize themselves with the very courts where their high school aspirations may unfold.

  • The Deerfield Feeder program is an introduction for boys to the Deerfield High School basketball program’s framework, including offense, defense, and overall philosophy and values.

Included as a Young Warriors player - 

  • Free Tryouts in October for the Young Warriors teams at Deerfield High School.

  • Deerfield Young Warriors Night at a Deerfield High School Varsity game (Date TBD).

  • Free entry to every DHS home boys basketball game for every player that wears their Young Warriors jersey or shooting shirt.

  • Free Clinics - TBD (A clinic with Varsity Coach McKendrick will be announced soon!)

DEERFIELD YOUNG WARRIORS TEAM DETAILS

Tryouts

2024-2025 Tryout Schedule
Tryouts for the 2024-2025 Deerfield Young Warriors feeder basketball season are now complete. Please email billy@aiathletics.com if you are still interested in having your son evaluated for a team.

To pre-register for tryouts, please click here.

Season Details

Season Dates: The feeder basketball season will start in the beginning of November & end at the beginning of March.

Practices and Games: Depending on age level, the season will consist of 25-30 practices (two practices per week) and 20-25 games (combination of league games and tournaments). Practices will be held at Deerfield High School or the Berto Center and there will be no practices the week of Thanksgiving or over the two weeks of winter break.

All 3rd-5th grade Young Warriors teams will participate in established leagues like the Play Hard Feeder League and Chicagoland Feeder League, which are exclusively open to community-based teams. 6th-8th grade teams will participate in the Play Hard Feeder League or will participate in a combination of feeder tournaments, along with individually scheduled games. The feeder season serves as a unifying time each year for players and families within the community. We are very excited for the promising future of Deerfield basketball and the positive impact a unified feeder program will have on our community.

Uniform Package

Every new player will receive a high-grade reversible uniform, practice jersey and moisture management shooting shirt.

Returning players that participated in the 2023-2024 Deerfield Young Warriors program will have the opportunity to wear their uniform from last year and receive a returning player discount.

Ages

The Deerfield Young Warriors Feeder Basketball Program is open to boys in grades 3rd through 8th (2nd graders are allowed to try out for the 3rd-grade teams). We plan to have at least one team per grade level. If there are more players that tryout at a specific grade level, we will form different levels of teams based on the players that attend tryouts.

Fee

The fee for the Young Warriors program is $1,100 for new players that did not participate on a DFYW team during the 2023-2024 season (and $1,000 for returning players). The new player fee includes a uniform, shooting shirt, practice jersey, gym fees, tournament fees, league fees, officials’ fees, coaching fees and insurance. This fee can be paid in 1, 2 or 3 installments upon acceptance of team placement after rosters are released.

The Deerfield Young Warriors Feeder Basketball Program will not deny the opportunity for any child to take part in any program due to financial hardship. You may submit an application to reduce your fees. We will keep all applications confidential. Please reach out to kelly@aiathletics.com if you are interested in applying for financial assistance.
