2024 Club Program
The Gretna Basketball Academy strives to provide opportunities for all Gretna area youth to participate in basketball. Our GBA programs consist of different levels of competition that are both a feeder program for Gretna high schools (GHS & GEHS), and an opportunity for all Gretna students to participate in and gain a lifelong love of the game of basketball.
The GBA Club Program is available for area youth living in the Gretna School District. Registration opens August 1st each year and players are assigned a team by division subject only to coach and sufficient player availability by division.
There are no tryouts for the GBA Club program.
The program is designed for players still working to build their fundamental skills and understanding of the game. It is also a good fit for players involved in multi-sports or activities as the time commitment is less than is required for the GBA Select Program. Players who tried out for the GBA Select Program, but were not selected for a team, declined a team offer or decided there were not ready for the requirement commitment are welcome to register for the GBA Club Program.
The Club Program season runs from October to February.
- Teams are formed via program registration, subject only to coach and sufficient player availability by division.
