Youth Basketball
The JCC and Bexley Schools are working together on our youth basketball program. The goal is to have a spot for any child who wants to play basketball whether strictly recreational or competitive.

For the recreational program the JCC offers its Randy Kohn Memorial Youth Basketball League for children in grades K-6. Currently there are 133 players in the program. The participants are placed on teams that are coached by volunteer coaches and they receive instruction from former Otterbein player and current JCC Basketball Trainer, Pat Noles. Each Sunday the players practice and play games against other teams in the league.

The competitive program consists of a 3rd/4th grade Travel team that is playing in the Central Ohio Boys Basketball Association League. They will play 18 games against other teams throughout Columbus and the nearby area like New Albany, Upper Arlington, Dublin, Hilliard, Grove City, Olentangy, and Pickerington. The team is coached by John Cunningham the players are Cole Heilman, Simon Kroos, Andrew Leader, Josh Meyer, Evan Miller, Jacob Mittman, Jonah Schottenstein, Dylan Soga, Sam Tuckerman, and Hudson Wagenbrenner. In addition to this travel team there will also be All-Star teams that will develop from players in the Randy Kohn Memorial Youth Basketball League. These teams will be offered to players in grades 3-6.
