Cox Ball Kids Program

Ball kids are an integral part of every home men's and women's basketball game and URI Athletics has partnered up with Cox to provide opportunities for local kids to enjoy this experience. Ball kids are responsible for shagging loose balls before, during and after games, helping with some equipment and keeping the game flowing.

For their participation, every kid will recieve a special URI/Cox t-shirt and will sit beside the baskets during the game. Two (2) tickets will be provided to each ball kid for their parents/guardians. In addition to the general responsibilies, all ball kids must meet the following requirements:

1. You must be between the ages of 7 and 13 years old (not yet in 9th grade) at the start of the season.

2. You must be able to listen to and follow verbal directions give my supervisors.

3. You must be able to pay attention to all on-court action throughout the duration of the event.

4. You must arrive one (1) hour before the start of the game and arrive on time.

5. You must be able to work effectively with others and have the ability to work as a team.
