Dayton HS Sports partners with Payne Rec to Launch YBDL

After looking at the landscape of youth basketball for over 10 years in the Miami Valley, Dayton HS Sports decided that they wanted to be more involved with the development of the youth.


With that being said, the officials at Payne Recreation Center have decided to partner with Dayton HS Sports to launch a new youth basketball league for the boys and girls of Greater Dayton.

The new League,  called the Dayton HS Sports Youth Basketball Development League (YBDL) , will launch on January 8th (Wednesday) and will run through March, per reports.

Brent Shane, one of the people who wanted to bring back a youth program at Payne Rec (Formerly named Splash Moraine), felt like it was essential to start a youth basketball program this year.

After meeting with the staff on a few separate occasions, all sides agreed to Launch the YBDL.

While the Youth Basketball Development League will focus on on court improvement,  it will also work on developing the youth in the classroom and in the workforce as well.

With Dayton HS Sports winning 2 National Awards for best sports show, the goal is to also show the youth that there are options as well, that go beyond just dribbling the ball and scoring baskets.




The League will look to add Tutors, Motivational Speakers, volunteer Coaches, Big Brothers and Sisters, Parents and volunteers who are interested in helping the YBDL grow.

"We understand that there are kids who are looking for the opportunity to get better every week, and we want to provide this for them,"
 Deon Cash, the CEO of Dayton HS Sports, said.

"We also understand there are factors that stop the youth from reaching their maximum potential.

We want to do everything we can to alleviate that problem for each individual."


The League will debut on January 8th, and will start with Open Training from 6-8pm.

The training is open to the public ($5 entry)  and will offer a discounted price for the West Carrollton Youth Basketball Program members.

The ages will range from ages 5-15. However no kid will be turned away who wants to be helped, no matter the age.

The League will run through March.
Sponsors, donors, and volunteers are all needed.
