NGBA is a rec basketball league for beginners and experienced girls alike! NGBA has a well-defined mission that varies from other sports programs with which you might be familiar. We are a recreational basketball league. Our primary emphasis is on having fun and teaching the girls basketball skills. We emphasize good sportsmanship, and have a strict rule that requires each girl to play approximately one-half of each game. Teams are formed to allow girls, when possible, to play with their friends and schoolmates. NGBA also enables players to meet other girls from around the city of Newton.
