The Boston GLBTQ Basketball League (BGBL) provides a welcoming and fun environment for the Boston LGBTQ+ community and its allies to enjoy the game of basketball. The BGBL promotes sportsmanship and camaraderie and is free from any and all discrimination. Season after season, we strengthen diversity and tolerance within athletics and our larger community. Each year, new and returning players from diverse backgrounds join to overcome obstacles, have fun, and build friendships. In addition, the BGBL hosts events with partner Boston non-profits who also advocate for social justice and historically oppressed communities. Since 1994, the BGBL has played an integral role in expanding safe spaces for the LGBTQ+ community in the Boston area, fostering community, and inspiring future generations. We offer two divisions of play for all experience levels, including beginners are welcome.
