The Knights of Columbus Little Kids Hoops league will begin play Saturday, Oct. 12 at the Felix Madrazo Gym.

Games for boys and girls from pre-kindergarten through second grade go from 9 to 10:30 a.m. Games for players in the third through sixth grade go from 10:30 until noon. Hoops will be lowered for the younger players.

The league is free to all boys and girls, and players can show up to play week to week. There is no registration.

Players will be put on teams each week by Dan and Tom Boyle, who will referee the games and make sure each player is part of the action. There are no coaches.

The KC Little Kids Hoops program has been running for more than 30 years, and many of the boys and girls in the league turned out to be high school and college players.

The league will run on Saturdays into January, and all players will receive a T-shirt on the last day.
