Founded in 1968, Small Fry Basketball provides an opportunity for shorter boys and girls to excel in the sport of basketball, to travel, and have fun. The program is developmental, yet extremely competitive, with an opportunity to meet new friends and compete on the international level. The Association consists of teams from all over the United States and the Caribbean. The competition culminates with the International and Friendship Championship Tournaments held at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World® Resort in Orlando Florida.
All team and player expenses, which include travel expenses, league fees, uniforms, and equipment are fully sponsored. Each year the VI Jaguars travel to Puerto Rico, St. Croix, and to Florida to compete against other Small Fry Basketball teams.
