The high school junior varsity basketball season gets going Tuesday, December 5, for local teams.

The Highwood Mustangs get a tough test early as they'll face the Foothills Falcons.

It's the battle of the Spartans as the Strathmore Spartans come to DeWinton to take on the Strathcona-Tweedsmuir Spartans.

And in Okotoks, the Holy Trinity Academy Knights JV boys host Chief Jacob Bearspaw.

On the ladies side, the Foothills Falcons make their way to Strathmore to tackle the Holy Cross Collegiate Hawks.
