The First Friends Church (FFC) Sports Ministry Men’s Summer Open Basketball League is designed to provide quality competition in a friendly fashion for men age 18 and up. During the post-game huddles each participant is introduced to the claims of Christ and are encouraged to share with each other how Christ is impacting their lives. Registrations are on an individual basis, and all teams are drafted after the open gyms. We will have Referees officiating every game.
