Financial Assistance
The Shakopee Boys Basketball Association (SBBA) is committed to providing every boy the opportunity to play basketball, regardless of financial circumstances. To support this mission, the SBBA offers two forms of financial assistance: Fee Reduction and Payment Plans.
1. Fee Reduction
For all programs, SBBA will reduce fees by 50%-100% of the registration cost (including the Travel fee, if applicable) for players who qualify for free or reduced school lunch.
How to Apply for Financial Aid:
1. Initial Application:
• Complete the financial aid registration form once per school year.
• Include a current free/reduced school lunch verification letter from your school district, listing the player’s name.
• Allow 3-5 business days to receive your discount code via email.
2. Using Your Discount Code:
• Once you receive the code, proceed with registering for your desired program.
• If you have already submitted your verification letter for the current school year, you do not need to apply again. Simply click here to email the Finance Committee to request a new discount code for additional programs.
2. Payment Plans
For families seeking flexibility with program fees, SBBA offers payment plans when registrations open several months prior to the program’s start.
Payment Plan Details:
• Families can choose to spread out registration payments over a 2-4 month period.
• A percentage of the total fee is due upfront at the time of registration, with the remaining balance automatically scheduled in installments.
• Payment plans are available during the registration process for eligible programs.
Important Notes:
• Financial assistance does not cover the following:
• Any required deposit checks
• Replacement uniform pieces
• Equipment
By offering fee reductions and payment plans, SBBA ensures that all boys have the opportunity to experience the joy and benefits of playing basketball, regardless of financial circumstances.
