Known by most as the WBBL, our league is over 50 years old and is considered one of the top youth sports organizations in the Southeast. All players make a team and all players play in each game. Teams are divisionalized by age group and strengths making for fair, competitive, and fun games!
The WBBL regular rec season is a well-developed and top-grade basketball opportunity. We have an exceptional staff and are well-known for the great sportsmanship our league fosters. Several of our coaches are former collegiate basketball players and athletes, allowing players to be mentored and motivated by someone who knows the game well!
Season Info:
Our regular season runs during the normal basketball season.
Evaluation nights take place early October and teams are put together by Halloween.
Games and practices start in November and go through December and January.
Games are typically always played on Saturdays. Games can tip-off as early as 8:45am and end as late as 7:00pm.
All teams practice at least one per week with some teams choosing to practice twice.
