Junior Hilltoppers Youth Basketball

2024-2025 Basketball Program

Junior Hilltoppers Basketball

Registration for the 2024-2025 season is now closed and our teams are full

The Junior Hilltoppers Basketball Program embodies the values and mission of Marquette High athletics formed in the Jesuit tradition by creating “men for others.” With an emphasis on player growth and development, the Junior Hilltoppers Basketball Program teaches basketball fundamentals and instills life skills including work ethic, fair play, good sportsmanship, morals, and leadership.
 

Junior Hilltoppers Basketball is a complement to, not a substitute for, the Parochial grade school basketball teams which should remain the 1st priority for boys who have that option available. Junior Hilltoppers Basketball is not an AAU or traveling team program. Games will be played at local area high schools and other venues in SE Wisconsin.
