Basketball

Skill Development and Character Building

Presented by Live Like Luke, our co-ed basketball league provides youth the opportunity to learn and develop basketball skills in a fun, competitive environment. Open to all skill levels, the program emphasizes the importance of teamwork, discipline, and leadership—skills that help build character both on and off the court. Our league is designed to be accessible, with a low cost of $25 per player, making it affordable for all families.
