DONS Basketball League (DBL) é um programa de extensão que é livre para todos os jovens

DONS Basketball League (DBL) is a Durham based community outreach program that is free for all youth, at no cost to parents. The league and its games simulate the authentic NBA experience. DBL incorporates mandatory community service, educational and character building workshops and physical fitness. The League deliberately target youth in the most underserved areas of the Triangle region. DBL staff reach out to participants in every way possible including providing uniforms, transportation, entertainment, league magazine, team dinners and many other amenities. This upcoming season DBL has partnered with Aisymmetry LLC to offer a STEM Robotics class for youth participants..

Community Outreach is an important element of involvement, and the DBL aims to reach as many members of the community as possible. In an effort to truly focus on the mission: outreach, service and education, players serve first and play second. Discipline is administered and integrated into all elements of the league experience. All league officials, coaches, and representatives emphasize that sportsmanship, productivity and brotherhood are the league’s core values.

The DBL administers a 12-week intensive summer basketball league open to all its participants and their families. DBL gives youth who might otherwise have too much free time on their hands a place where they can go and participate in physical activity in a safe, supervised, structured environment. The DBL helps develop our youth to become productive citizens.
