NOAH's Elementary teams play in
the Elementary Christian Conference (ECC) and their
season begins in January. NOAH typically hosts an annual
pre-season tournament in December.
The Tulsa NOAH Jaguars are privileged to be practicing and playing games
at:
Town & County Gym
5150 E. 101st Street
Tulsa, OK 74137
NOAH leases this facility on a limited basis
from October through March and we are proud to call it our Home
Gym.

All coaches, players, and parents are required to sign a
code of
conduct in order to participate in NOAH. The basketball
season is culminated by playing in the
National Homeschool Basketball Tournament.
Over 250 teams from all over the country participate in March of
each year.
It
is the largest basketball tournament (at any level) in the
country.
The following is
a brief overview of our basketball programs. For complete
details, download our Player/Parent
Handbook.
'A' Division:
The A division competes at
the highest level for elementary players. There are no
playing time requirements for each player, and most of the
players are 6th graders. NOAH typically fields one boys
and one girls team in the A division. Schools in this
division typically include teams from Holland Hall, Victory,
Evangelistic Temple, Grace, Wright, etc.
B Division:
In the B division, there is a playing time requirement for each
player. There will be a mix of 5th and 6th grade players.
NOAH typically fields one girls team and 2 boys teams for the B
division. Schools in this division are similar to those in
the A division.
C Division: This is a newer division
that started in the 2003-04 season and is for boys only.
This division will be comprised of the less skilled
players/teams so they can compete on a more competitive level.
This will definitely be a highly developmental division with
required playing time rules. No 6th graders allowed in
this division. NOAH anticipates that we will field one
boys team for this division.
ECC Tournament:
The top 8 teams in each division
earn the right to play in the post-season playoffs (March) and
see who will be crowned the city champion.
