The Tallahassee Police Athletic League is now accepting applications for the 2026 youth basketball summer league. It provides youth the opportunity to grow under the guidance of dedicated adults who assist them in developing self-esteem, skills and respect, both on the court and off. The program also helps youth develop an understanding of the role of law enforcement.

The season will run from June 1 to July 29. All games will be played at the City of Tallahassee's Jack McLean Community Center, 700 Paul Russell Road, every Monday and Wednesday from 6-9 p.m.

The league is open to youth ages 10-15. The registration fee is $40. Registration forms can be downloaded online. You can also pick up a registration form at the Tallahassee Police Department, located at 234 E. Seventh Avenue, or from Jack McLean Community Center. All registration forms and supporting documents must be returned to the Tallahassee Police Department, c/o the Police Athletic League, by May 13, 2026.
