WHO CAN PLAY IN THE LEAGUE?
Rockets Development League is for players that currently compete in the clubs Under 12 or Under 14 development programme, or their U12,14,16 &18 Girls programme. This gives all players an opportunity in the club to compete and represent their ,local team.
WHY DO WE USE NBA TEAMS FOR TEAM NAMES?
Each of our teams has their own team name as part of the Rockets development programme. However some of our venues are used for multiple teams of the same age group (therefore giving them the same name!). Also if any teams cant quite field a big enough teams we then merge teams together. An NBA team name allows teams to combine and play in the league together.
