As Seattle has continued to grow over the past few years, obtaining gym space had become a barrier for LGBTQ sports organizations. When the Asian Resource Center changed ownership and closed the gym the group (Seattle Gay Basketball Association) was left without a place to play. Several attempts at using community centers and local schools failed as other organization and leagues took precedent on the schedule.

We have re-united and established a board of directors with the mission of building a long lasting LGBTQ and Friends basketball organization. We plan to hold leagues year-round complemented with fun tournaments and social gatherings. We want to be more than just a basketball league, we want to build a community of like minded people having fun and playing a sport they all love.

We welcome players from all walks of life and playing ability. We will help you learn the game of basketball and get you on the court in a fun, competitive way. For more information on joining one of our leagues or our special events, visit
