Another season starts here. Registration runs August 1–23 and closes for good at 9:00 PM — divisions fill on a first-come basis, so don't wait on this one.

8th grade boys evaluate September 13, not August 30. Please double-check this if your son is in 8th grade.

Callbacks are by invitation only we'll contact you directly as needed after evaluations. Make-up sessions run the Tuesday after each evaluation date and still count toward American team eligibility, but please prioritize your scheduled session when possible.

What's New: Backspin

The Diocese has moved all player and coach registration to a new centralized platform called Backspin. TeamSnap isn't going away: we'll continue to use it all season for rosters, scheduling, and team communication.

1 For Parents

Click “2026–2027 Basketball”

New this year Two documents to upload

You'll need to attach both of these to complete your child's registration. Have them ready before you start as you can't finish the form without them.

  1. Proof of residency
  2. Birth date verification

Tip: a phone photo of each document works fine. Snap them now and you'll get through registration in one sitting.

  • Register early. Every division has a player cap. Once it's full, new registrants go to a waitlist though historically we've been able to include most waitlisted players.
  • Know the commitment: practices begin in October, league and tournament games run November through early February, with playoffs after. Expect 2 practices per week plus 10 league games.
  • Eligibility: live within St. Perpetua Parish boundaries, attend St. Perpetua School, or attend Faith Formation at St. Perpetua Church.
  • Uniforms: new players will need to order one. Instructions are emailed after registration closes.

  • Register yourself. Please don't register on behalf of a spouse.
  • Required for all head and assistant coaches.
  • Only starred (*) fields are required so you can skip the rest.
  • Still deciding? Sign up anyway. Expressing interest helps us plan coverage for every team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did the registration fee increase?

Gym rentals, referee wages, and league fees have all gone up. The fee change reflects those costs directly.

What documents do I need to upload, and what counts?

Proof of residency and birth date verification are both required this year. A clear phone photo or scan is fine for either one. If you're unsure whether a document qualifies, email the Registrar before the deadline rather than after — we'd rather sort it out early than have a player held up.

Are we still using TeamSnap?

Yes. Backspin handles registration only. TeamSnap remains our tool for team management, communication, and scheduling throughout the season.

What if I miss the registration deadline?

Deadlines and team sizes will be strictly enforced so every player gets the best possible experience. Late requests are handled case by case, but we can't promise a spot. Please help spread the word so no one misses out.

What if my child decides not to play, can I get a refund?

While registration is open, refunds minus the registration fees are available. After registration closes, refunds are subject to a 20% processing fee. No refunds are issued once teams are formed.
