The Florida Keys Youth Basketball League kicked off another season with more than 250 young athletes taking to the courts on Dec. 3. In its sixth season under Melissa O’Keeffe, founder and commissioner, the league has grown in participation among Upper Keys kids. Games were played at the Key Largo School and Plantation Key School courts. A special thanks goes out to Monroe County Sheriff’s deputy Vaughn O’Keefe, who tossed the ceremonial jump ball for the first game of the season at PKS.
