Coach,

We just moved to Brooklyn and I am looking for a place for my 11 yr. old son to play basketball, any suggestions?

 Maria,

Thanks for checking out PlaysportsTV.com and submitting your question.  Generally in most large urban areas like Brooklyn, NY, you can find local recreation level sports at your local YMCA or church.  Being from the NY Metro area myself, I am very familiar with the Catholic Youth Organization, or CYO, which at your local Catholic church, will have teams for all ages and skill levels.  They play a competitive schedule against other teams in NYC and is a great feeder route for playing in high school and beyond.  They accept a certain a number of non-catholics as well.  Check out this site and see if they can help in your local community as well.  Good luck and please check back to PlaysportsTV.com for updates, and click on the basketball tab for videos and a link to my blog as well!
