A summary is below, but is subject to change. Please use the above link for acurate details.
For New Families - Rockets Basketball submits our club teams to participate in the Metro Basketball League. They controll schedules and matchups vs other clubs. We have no input or ability to change the dates of play, and can not request or changes times of day. The schedule will roll out to your RAMP Teams app once balancing and placements are over, and you have been assigned to a team and Metro Basketball has completed the schedule based on that data. The first game will load in The RAMP Teams app a few days before the first listed date of play (typically the Tuesday/Wednesday before the below date). Each week for the first 3 weeks will load in the app 5-6 days in advance. Once the first three games are completed - the remaining schedule up to the Christmas break will typically load all at once. And the remaining block of games will load over the holiday break. This is done for seeding validation from the league - the first three games are to attemp to assure you team has been placed in the correct division. And the break at Christmas is to create an opportunity to revisit those alignments and to make a best effort to fix any errors. The goal is for teams to be competitive in 50% of their games.
