After a 3 year break due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, The 20th Annual New York Ave Classic is finally back for the summer of 2023. So this is our 20th season, but it’s our 23rd year!! As usual, this event is still FREE FOR ALL TEAMS!!!
New for 2023, we have GIRL DIVISIONS in addition to the BOYS DIVISIONS. This will be the first year that we will have girls at the New York Ave Classic. We hope that this would help keep the girls engaged in basketball just as it has with the boys. We look forward to watching the girl ballers show their skills!!
In 2000, a basketball league was formed to keep youth active and engaged in positive activity during the summer months. Over the years, thousands of youth in and around the DC area have participated in this event, thus making this event the largest youth Streetball League in the DMV with over 600 youth participating.
As always, this has been a community event that embraces the the neighborhoods that surround the New York Ave Playground, located at 100 N St. NW, Washington DC. We have a great time every week with food, music, games, education, and community related information. This event has some of the most competitive youth basketball players in city that want to make a name for themselves on the streets of DC as a Baller!!
The divisions for 2023 are Elementary School (4th-5th grade), Middle School (6th, 7th, & 8th Grade), Since we are starting late this year, we do not have JV or Varsity divisions.
Games will begin SATURDAY, JULY 8th and are played Every Saturday until August 8th, 2023.
