2019-2020 Travel Basketball Program Information:
As you may recall, last year there were two Travel Basketball programs in Hudson; Hudson Recreation’s program and the Hudson Hawks’ program. Both programs participated in and competed well in the Central Mass Youth Basketball League. As the weather turns to fall, a lot of people have been asking about plans for the upcoming season. A month or so ago, we were approached by a group of parents from the Hudson Hawks’ group. They expressed a desire to partner with Hudson Recreation on running the Travel Basketball Program for the Town of Hudson. We arranged a meeting with them and shared ideas and thoughts about Travel Basketball. They are a well-organized group and have put a lot of thought and planning into their vision of Travel Basketball. After meeting with the group and after careful consideration, Hudson Recreation has decided it will take a step back from Travel Basketball this year, allowing the Hudson Hawks group to take on the role and responsibilities of offering Travel Basketball to any and all wishing to play Travel, while at the same time allowing Hudson Recreation to focus more on Recreational programs, such as Recreation Basketball, and other programs that align with our mission.
Over the next few weeks, we anticipate the Hawks program will release registration and tryout information. As we become aware of that information, we will share it with you. Information regarding Recreation Basketball will be forth-coming over the coming weeks, as well. Both we and the Hawks group encourage participation in both programs, as both programs offer unique benefits and opportunities to those who participate in them.
In the meantime, if you’d like to reach out to the Hawks’ group directly, please reach out to them via e-mail at hawkstravelbasketball@gmail.com. You can also follow them on Facebook at “Hudson Hawks Travel Basketball” where updates will be posted frequently.
Again, this email only pertains to those interested in playing in the competitive Travel Basketball Program. Information regarding Recreation Basketball will be finalized soon. Once finalized, information will be emailed out and posted on our web site and Facebook page.
