RIYBA

RIYBA is the governing body of RI Travel basketball. We are made up of over 30 associations throughout the state.  We provide league games, tournament play, and state playoffs for boys and girls in grades 3-8.  We are not an AAU program.  We are a collection of town all-star or travel teams in which the town that you live in,  is the town that you play for.

RI Metro West YBL

All RIYBA Members play league games in RI Metro West.

How to determine which Local Association my son/daughter can play for?

RIYBA is a collection of locally-run associations.  Each city/town has an all-volunteer group of people that organize travel basketball in your local area.  Please click  HERE and scroll down to find your local association.  From there you will be able to contact them directly


Contacting RIYBA

If you have a question about player eligibility,  coaching,  teams or officials- please notify your local director first. They have access to team rosters and the league and tournament director(s).
