Brainerd Basketball Association Scholarship
The Brainerd Basketball Association (BBA) is a community based volunteer organization whose objective is to foster and develop competitive basketball players in the communities of Brainerd and Baxter, Minnesota. With direction from the Brainerd Boys & Girls Varsity basketball coaches, the program’s goal is to develop basketball players who have aspirations of playing competitive basketball in the Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL). To develop players we offer a traveling basketball league for boys and girls in grades 3-8. Players in the program must have a greater commitment, in that each participant is expected to attend practices and weekend tournaments. This opportunity is open to all children who have aspirations of playing basketball at a competitive level.
