​
What if my child misses a training session?
Your child can make up the class(es) missed by coming to any training within the 6 week training period. Please tell the front desk that they are doing a make up! Your balance can also be transferred to camps as well. Your child has 1 year to make up what they missed. You can substitute a sibling to participate in their place.

What is AAU Basketball? What is the HBL?
AAU Basketball is short for the Amateur Athletic Union. It is independently formed teams that compete in tournaments together. The HBL is short for the Hoosier Basketball League. All IBA teams play in this league on a weekly basis. IBA is a founding partner in this league and is open to other programs joining.
​
What else do we need to know about joining an IBA Team?
When your on an IBA Team, you will be asked to purchase a jersey after your deposit. If you are a returning player and we do not have a new uniform design for the season, you are welcome to use your current uniform. Travel teams also play at venues that typically charge admission (typically cash only) for adults and students. These admissions go to the HBL to pay for referees and other league related fees. AAU team families will also be responsible for their travel costs dependent on the tournament schedule.
​
Who are your coaches?
We only hire non-parent coaches here at the IBA. We have a very high standard and screening process when it comes to who we hire to ensure the best athletic experience and safety for our athletes.
​
How much are the programs? Are there refunds?
Each season is initiated by a non-refundable deposit. This deposit goes towards your program cost, but is NOT the final cost of the season. Each season is a little different in pricing, please feel free to call with any specific questions. IBA Program registrations are non-refundable. IBA will issue a credit good for one calendar year to be applied to any IBA program.
