Elementary Basketball FAQ

The Collierville Schools Elementary Basketball League (CSEBL) is a new league dedicated to delivering a competitive experience to our elementary schools.

  • The league is intended for fifth grade participation in preparation for middle school basketball. However, each school has the option to extend the invitation to participate to fourth graders on a space available basis.

  • All participants must complete FinalForms (PDF), the district's sports medicine compliance platform. 

  • Those selected will be required to pay $100 that will cover the cost of equipment and other charges.

  • Schools may hold tryouts prior to December 13th, 2023 with the first contest scheduled for Wednesday, January 17, 2024. Games will be played on Wednesdays through the months of January and February. No contest will be held on February 14, 2024. Regular season games will be held at the individual elementary schools.

    Girls games will tip off at 4:45 p.m. with the boys to follow at approximately 5:45 p.m.

    An end of season CSEBL Tournament will take place in March at the My Town Movers Fieldhouse at Collierville High School. The quarterfinals will take place March 6, 2024 and the Final Four is set for March 13, 2024. All games will be completed prior to Spring Break.

    Student-athletes will not be denied playing in the Town of Collierville recreation league if they tryout and make their respective CSEBL team. 

  • The CSEBL will follow the rules and regulations set forth by the TMSAA. Each contest will have four, six minute quarters with a two minute halftime. Teams will be granted one timeout per half. 

    Regular size TMSAA basketballs will be used.
    Girls: Size 6
    Boys: Size 7

  • The officials will be assigned by the local TSSAA assigner. All officials are credentialed.
