A tradition of teamwork, skill, and sportsmanship.
Saint Teresa Basketball
Our 12-week basketball season kicks off earlier in the year and runs through mid-March, offering more game time and development for players across all levels. The program is proudly run by Phil & PJ Shea through Saint Teresa of the Child Jesus Parish, with decades of experience supporting youth basketball in Pawtucket.
Eligibility
Open to students in Grades 3–8, with teams based on skill level and grade:
Instructional (Grades 3–4)
Junior Division (Grades 5–6) – Divisions 1 & 2
Grammar Division (Grades 7–8) – Divisions 1 & 2
In 2024, we proudly relaunched our Middle School Girls Basketball Team, coached by our history teacher, Christine Field, with support from science teacher, Jake Fitzgerald.
Tryouts
Tryouts are held prior to the season for placement. More details to follow!
Important Note
Registration fees have increased slightly to reflect the extended season and to fairly compensate our dedicated officials.
Stay tuned for registration info and tryout dates.

2025-2026 Game Schedule
The updated 2025-2026 basketball game schedule is now available on the CAL website: https://calsportsri.org/schedules
The schedule is subject to change. Also please note the “Home” vs “Away” team listed on the schedule will not always match the host location of the gym. Some teams do not have a home court location and will be the home team in a visiting gym. The only privilege that the scheduled/listed “Home” team is awarded is the choice of jersey color when both teams have reversible options. And they will be responsible for keeping the official scorebook if any discrepancies arise during the game.
Rest in Peace our longtime dedicated Coach, Buster Wall.
