Structured development for juniors building their game.

Register in the app.
Age groups are the shape of the morning, not a hard rule. Tell us when you register if your player is ahead of their age or brand new to the game, and a coach will make sure they are in the session that suits them best.
Played with us before? Everyone re-registers in the app for the new season. Previous subscriptions have been cancelled and will not restart on their own.
COMPETE
Full-court 5-on-5 is the heart of what we run, with 3x3 alongside it through the summer. Junior and senior basketball, all season, all levels.
Around ten teams across three courts at Dean's, four nights across the summer, multiple games a night. Fast, loud, first to 21 or the buzzer. Follow every game night as it happens.
VIEW FIXTURES AND LIVE UPDATES →Lincoln Falcons, Lincoln Lightning and Lincoln Tropics went at it all summer season. The junior league returns in October, bigger than before, with the new season taking shape now. Details to follow.
RESULTS AND TABLES →Full-court 5-on-5, every team under one roof. The Central Venue League returns on Thursday 1 October in a new format: from this season the league runs by invitation, with a smaller and more consistent group of teams, protecting the quality of the basketball and the standard that makes it worth turning up for. Teams interested in a place in future seasons are welcome to get in touch.

FAQ
Every Saturday at Dean's Sport and Leisure on Monks Road, Lincoln, with sessions running side by side across the hall. From Saturday 12 September there are four groups: Micro Ballers for under 7s from 9:00 to 10:00, Midi Ballers for under 15s from 9:00 to 10:30, Mini Ballers for under 12s from 10:00 to 11:30, and LincolnBasketball Juniors for under 18s from 10:30 to 12:30. Register in the app and pick the group that fits.
Thursday nights rotate. Depending on the week it could be junior games, an open scrimmage, a women and girls session, Over 40s, or a Central Venue League night once the season is running. Because it changes week to week, the live schedule is the place to check. It is updated as soon as anything moves.
All sessions and scrimmages run at Dean's Sport and Leisure on Monks Road, Lincoln. Great courts, changing facilities and easy parking. Check our socials for venue updates around special events or tournaments.
Saturday junior sessions run through the LincolnBasketball app. Register your player, add your details and consents, choose their group and set up the monthly subscription. That is everything sorted before you walk in. For adult open scrimmages, join the scrimmage group on Spond and check in there before you come down.
Yes. Everyone re-registers in the app for the new season, even if nothing about their session has changed. Previous subscriptions have been cancelled, and refunded where that applied, so nothing carries over automatically. It takes a few minutes and it means we have the right information for every player before Saturdays restart.
Start with their age group. The bands are a guide rather than a hard line, and our coaches already move players between sessions where another group suits their ability or experience better. Pick the one you think fits when you register and tell us if you have a strong view. A coach will have the final say on where a player lands, and we will always talk it through with you.
It is a web app, so there is nothing to download. Open app.lincolnbasketball.co.uk in any browser and it works on a phone, a tablet or a laptop. It holds player and guardian details, emergency information and consents including first aid and photography, and it handles registrations, attendance, session information and updates. Coaching notes and player feedback are being added as it grows, so it becomes something useful for the player rather than just a register.
The 3x3 Summer League is under way: view fixtures and live updates here. The senior Central Venue League returns on Thursday 1 October in its new invitation format, and the junior league is back in October with details to follow. For those two, drop us a message and we'll take it from there.
