Can my child play on a school basketball team and a club team at the same time?

    Many kids do both, but check a few things first: whether the two seasons overlap, whether practice and game times clash, whether the school or the club has any rules about playing for both, and whether your child can manage the physical load alongside schoolwork. Stacking intense training from both sides can lead to fatigue and even injury, so talk to both coaches early about scheduling. The school's and the club's own rules apply.

Forum rules

  • Share first-hand experience; say which year and age group.
  • No children's names, photos, schools or jersey numbers, and nothing that identifies a child.
  • Never name a referee. Coaches can be reviewed on their coach page; in the forum, talk about practices, not people.
  • No phone numbers, emails, addresses or screenshots of private messages.
  • Safety, abuse or harassment: contact the proper body. We don't judge such allegations in the forum.

Posts from new accounts are checked before they appear; established members post straight away and are checked afterwards. Reports that a post identifies a child, names a referee or makes a serious allegation hide it until a moderator decides. Full policy · Where to report safety concerns
