Cherokee Recreation & Parks Wins Outstanding Program Award

The Georgia Recreation and Parks Association (GRPA) presented Cherokee Recreation & Parks with the Outstanding Program Award for its Cherokee Youth Basketball program. The award highlights the steps the agency has taken to grow the program from its inaugural season in 2011 to a program that now boasts 556 teams with over 4,000 basketball players playing annually from October to March.

“The athletics division of Cherokee Recreation & Parks has worked hard over the past 10 years to build and provide the residents of Cherokee County with an exceptional youth basketball program,” said Cherokee Recreation & Parks Director Jay Worley. “The participation numbers are an indicator of our success, but the real achievements lie in the individual life lessons experienced by the players, coaches, and all those involved with the program.”

Cherokee Youth Basketball is a recreational basketball league open to county youth from kindergarten through 12th grade. Through partnerships with the Cherokee County School District, K-5th grade students play on teams representing their elementary school, while middle and high school students play on teams representing the high school in which the student is districted or currently attending. Teams are provided a space and time at their local school for practice and games. Each player is given a complete uniform along with an eight-game regular season schedule beginning the first weekend in December.
