Berean is proud to offer our community a family-friendly basketball league that focuses on teamwork, fun, and basketball fundamentals. Students in grades 3-12 come to grow in their love for the game, and also to build lasting relationships with peers. Parents find a safe, friendly environment for their students to learn, grow and use their God-given talents for recreational enjoyment.

Ed Davies, parent and also a coach states “The Berean Basketball League teaches and builds character. Not only do the participants learn what to do on the basketball court, but most importantly, how to live off the court.”
