September 2020

For the past few weeks, the Exec has been discussing what our BWBL season will look like, but we want to hear from you.

Check your emails and take the survey to help us determine what our return to play might be.

Stay tuned for more information later this fall to hear whether we will have a league in January. Stay healthy!

New Players

If you are a new player interested in joining the league, you will need to attend a Ratings Night. The next Ratings night will be Wednesday September 11th, 2019 at Haber Community center gym #5 from 7-8pm. Contact Tara at bwbleague72@gmail.com  if you have any other questions. 

Why do we require you to attend a ratings night?  Our league creates teams with equal talent across all teams, so that all teams have a fair shot at winning the championship.  We assess your skill level so we can make fair teams.

For the past 43 years the Burlington Women’s Basketball League (B.W.B.L.) has provided women from the Burlington area an opportunity to play in a semi-competitive basketball league. The league follows a full season schedule from October to April, playing on Wednesday nights at 7:15pm or 8:30pm. Regular Wednesday evening games are located at MM Robinson High School or Corpus Christi High School. The playing season concludes with a play-off tournament, which takes place on a Saturday.

B.W.B.L. has 8 teams, each sponsored by local businesses to offset gym and referee costs. The registration fee for all players is $275 which includes a team t-shirt, a 21 game season, and the playoff tournament. Teams consist of returning and newly registered players, put together by our Team Coordinator. Returning players are given priority to register for the next season. Any new players will receive a position on a team once returning players have been placed. There is a waiting list available when spaces are filled.

New players to our league are required to attend a rating night offered each September. The purpose of the rating night is to assess playing ability so we may equally distribute height and ability levels amongst our teams. Only one rating night is ever necessary, and is not to be confused with a try out! We have all ages (over 23) and abilities! If you are interested in attending the rating night, please submit your name to Tara, our Team Coordinator, at bwbleague72@gmail.com

Thanks for your interest. Hope to see you on the court!
