The Y at the Essentia Wellness Center offers 4 v 4 Adult Basketball leagues, and Open Gym

Open Gym times are available every day, when the gym is not being used for a scheduled activity. Contact Member Services, the Duluth Area Family YMCA app, or check our online schedule to see when the gym is available for open use.

Four-on-Four Basketball League is typically offered Monday evenings in Fall, Winter, and Spring sessions. Teams must be pre-formed and players must be at least 16 years of age.

Basketball leagues 

The 10-week season includes 8 games of round robin play and 2 weeks of single-elimination tournament play. Ages 18+. Team Registration can be completed here, at the front desk (4289 Ugstad Road Hermantown, MN 55811), or through our Member Service Team at 218.722.4745.

We understand how important physical activity and comradery is to maintain both mental and physical health and therefore the Duluth Area Family YMCA has deemed basketball games allowed under the following guidelines: 

  • All players must check-in on the roster at the front desk before playing.
    • A maximum of 10 players per roster. Subs are permitted. 
  • Referees will be following the YMCA 4 v 4 rules that have been predetermined. 
  • Games will consist of two 20-minute halves, but time between games will be extended to 60-minutes in order to reduce congestion in the gymnasium.
  • Spectating is allowed.
  • In the case of confirmed positive COVID-19 test on a team, the Y will work directly with the Minnesota Department of Health and Saint Louis County Public Health to communicate with individuals who may have been in close contact with the positive case.
  • These rules are subject to change per YMCA, regional, state, or national guidelines.
