Elementary Basketball League

The Elementary Sports League was created in 2008. The league started with the simple idea of allowing students to play basketball in the gymnasium of Mount Pleasant Elementary School during recess as an incentive for doing well in school behaviorally and academically. It quickly turned into the only program of its kind in the Brandywine School District and possibly the State of Delaware. The goal of the program is to Have Fun and Build Community. The fun that we have had has been more then we could have ever asked for, imagined or anticipated! We have cheerleading squads and in the past even had pep bands! You name it the schools are doing it! We have been able to do all of this and keep it free because of the very generous volunteer base as well as the support of the school district that is very generous with the use of the facilities.
