PCTBL is a traveling basketball league for boys and girls in the Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center communities. They are a non-profit, volunteer-run organization, striving to provide opportunities for eager athletes in our area.

Their core program is the Winter traveling basketball season. Player registrations for the Winter season are taken from mid-July to mid-September. The season runs October through mid-March. Teams play in weekend tournaments only (approximately 25 – 35 games) and practice twice on week nights. Tournaments fall, on average, every other weekend throughout the Metro area.

The Park Center Traveling Basketball team had our scholarship link on their website and had a few kids had filled out our application this summer. We connected with them to set up a program where we were able to donate $2000 to their new scholarship fund to pay for the kids that can’t afford to play.
