The EBA runs a traveling basketball program for boys and girls, grades 3 to 8. The traveling program is designed to develop players through competitive practices and games against other basketball association teams in the State of Minnesota and beyond.  

EBA Traveling Basketball consists of the following: 

• Boys teams by grade, 3-8, with 8-10 players per team
• Girls teams by grade, 3-8, with 8-10 players per team
• Seasons run from October to March
• Registration runs from July to August
• Tryouts take place in September
• Teams are assigned after tryouts as A, B, and C teams
• Volunteer head coaches interview in August and are assigned to teams after tryouts are completed
• Paid head coaches for 7th and 8th grade A teams interview in July
• Volunteer assistant coaches and team managers are assigned in October with consultation of the team head coach
• Teams practice 2-5 times per week depending on gym availability
• Teams participate in 8-10 tournaments including the State Tournament in March

Each grade level typically has 2 to 4 traveling teams. EBA endeavors to place all those trying out on an A, B, or C team based on level of play. There may be rare circumstances where a player is unable to be placed on a team due to the number of players trying out.  

The EBA is part of the Minnesota Youth Athletic Services (MYAS) and competes in MYAS tournaments, including the state tournament. Eligibility is generally subject to MYAS eligibility rules and requirements.  Current eligibility rules generally require players to be able to demonstrate enrollment at a school within the Eagan High School boundaries, or to demonstrate residency within such boundaries if the player is enrolled at a private or charter school outside such boundaries. For more information about eligibility requirements visit MYAS's website  or contact the EBA President.
