PLAYER TESTIMONIALS
SoCal BallersAMBER CRANE
Becoming a player of the NGBA has been one of the most fulfilling decisions I have made. I've been able to strengthen my athletic game and make lifelong friends. Players accept me on and off the court, whether in my sneakers or high heel shoe.

Finding the NGBA was like discovering an awesome treasure I didn’t know existed. I had not experienced playing competitive basketball in a completely safe space as an out member of the LGBTQ+ community before NGBA.
