Sunday night Graydon Garrett, a former player home from university for the holidays, stopped around our house with a friend for a nice visit, and to donate a basketball that we will use in the Graduate Division.
Thank you Graydon for your generosity, your support, and thank you for continuing to believe in what we do. You are a difference maker, and I appreciate you taking the time out of your time home to help our program.

The season that Don Petersen started our league,

the Syracuse Nationals beat the Fort Wayne Pistons 4 games to 3 to win the NBA Championship.

It was the season that saw the introduction of the 24 second shot clock, Bob Pettit was Rookie of the Year, Bob Cousy led the league in assists, and Bill Sharman shot 89.7% on free throws to lead the league.

In the same season, San Francisco beat LaSalle to win the NCAA championship.

In Ontario, Western University won the Provincial Men’s Championship for the 10th year in a row. They would win one more before Queen’s won their first title. 1962 would be the first year for a national champion.

A nice preamble to add some historical perspective. In our 70 years of operation lots has happened in the basketball world, and we have had lots of changes in our program as well, with expansion, restructuring, the elimination of playoffs, and the switch to our new home.

Throughout our history we have done our best to maintain the principles and vision that Don Petersen had when he started the league – to provide a safe place to learn the game, and how much fun it can be to be part of a team. We have also strived to keep the program affordable for families thanks to the support we have from the ALCDSB and donations made by local businesses and supporters.

To all of our league families past and present, thank you for your support. Savour the magic of this special time of year and enjoy the break before we start up again in January.
