While enrolled each child will be provided a team shirt and appropriately sized basketball. Organizer's This program is fueled by hard work from volunteers in the Tillsonburg and area community. The coordinators of the 2014 Tillsonburg Youth Basketball program are Danny Dube, Jesse Goossens, Lance Mackenzie and Michael Bossy. Volunteers We are always looking for additional volunteers to help coach. We encourage parents to get involved by helping coach a team. Our general approach is to have multiple coaches for each team to provide flexibility with regards to attendance. Multiple coaches also helps when demonstrating basketball skills. If you are interest in becoming a volunteer we do require a police check to be in compliance with the Ontario Basketball Associations insurance policy.
