KINGDOM EAST BASKETBALL
2026-2027 KESD Basketball
We are excited to announce that registration for the upcoming winter basketball season is officially open! As we gear up for the season, we want to make sure every student who wishes to play gets the opportunity to do so.
To help us prepare properly, registration will strictly close on Sunday, November 1st.
If your student is not signed up by November 1st, there is no guarantee they will be able to play with KESD this season. Students who register after this date will be placed on a waitlist and permitted to join only if space on a roster becomes available.
We realize a strict deadline can feel tight, but this cutoff allows us to accurately form teams, hire and assign coaches, order equipment, and publish practice and game schedules in a timely manner for everyone. Your prompt registration ensures we can deliver a smooth, well-organized season for our players and families.
