Looks like College Station just closed registration. What other options are there for an 8yo? Thanks!

Probably none. Upward closes mid fall. Maybe check out Boys and Girls Club.

Call and see if you can volunteer to coach and your kid can play.

If you call, they'll probably work with you to get your kid on a team.

I do wear a lot of hats but basketball coach is definitely not one of them.

When I played junior basketball years ago, my 11 or 12 year old team won the league championship. Our coach forced his awkward son to play even though he didn't want to, and he was awful so there was no "my kid is the star" type of coaching. His entire philosophy on offense was to get the ball down low and then "score my ball."

On defense? "Get my ball back! Go get my ball back!" Not sure he really ever taught us plays.

If that guy can coach a team to a title, you'll do fine.

Soccer registration is still open for CSSC.

We played last year and found it fun.

Central Sports (formerly Upwards) has already started their season. They had more participants than ever before.

COCS is doing co-ed from what I have heard. A friend's son is having to play 12U because there aren't enough 10U players. His mom is not pleased.

I coach for Aggieland Homeschool and we had a hard time getting to the eight players I currently have. Our season will be over at the end of February.

Soccer signups should begin in March I believe for Central Sports.

I'm sorry I didn't mention anything about you coaching, a previous poster did. Have you called to see if they can get you kid in? Back when I coached we always took on late registrations.
