GYA Jr Suns & Mercury Basketball

We are thrilled to launch the new season with Gilbert Youth Athletics (GYA)! This year, we’re taking the game to the next level through our exciting new partnership with the Jr. Suns & Jr. Mercury organization.

Community & Fun: Creating a positive environment for kids and families alike.

Every registered participant gets to look and feel like a pro with:

Brand-New Uniforms: High-quality tops and shorts included for all players.

Pro Game Tickets: As a member of the Jr. Suns program, you will receive:

One complimentary ticket to a Phoenix Suns game OR

Two complimentary tickets to a Phoenix Mercury game at the Footprint Center!

Our league is designed to provide age-appropriate competition and coaching for all skill levels:

• K – 2nd Grade
