MetroBall DC

700 T-Shirts

The Metropolitan Basketball League (aka Metroball, a 501c3 non-profit organization) has been a very positive force in the lives of over 700 youths each year in Washington D.C. for over ten years. During the school year, we operate a positive After School Basketball Skills Camp/Fitness program at several public schools in the District. In addition, we coach/mentor our youth Amateur Athletic Union Basketball Teams (AAU) and travel around the country with them to compete in various tournaments to compete in front of recruiting college coaches. The highlight of our program is our very own annual New York Ave. Summer Streetball Tournament to reduce violence which runs from the middle of June through the middle of August each year.

Our programs have formed partnerships with police officers, city officials, neighborhood partners, corporate sponsors, local school districts, community centers and Boys and Girls Clubs. Youth are lead by trained instructors to focus on positive reinforcement, trust-building, and the achievement of goals, by engaging youth in one-on-one outing and group adventures in the community. Trainers and youth interact and meet between 10-15 hours per week for a full year
