Who is UCLA Club Basketball?
We are a self-run and funded group of 18 student-athletes, three student managers and a three coaches (former players) who share a love for the game of basketball. Club basketball has offered us the ability to represent not only UCLA, but our friends and family on a national level. We are the defending national champions and currently ranked number 1 in the country with aspirations of defending out national title. We've worked hard all year to get to this point, but to move further we need financial support.

More about Club Sports at UCLA
Club Basketball is one of several amazing Club Sports Organizations here at UCLA. However, we are responsible for all financial implications of travel, uniforms, tournament and league fees, staffers and coach. Throughout the years we have charged dues to our players, but between the financial stresses of school and housing we can only provide so much. This has also led our team to be in debt as well. To allow our players and staffers to excel on and off the court we will need all the support you can give.

We are currently undefeated with a SoCal Classic tournament championship under our belt. We are ranked first in the country coming off of a National Championship in our first year with the National Club Basketball Association and are looking to defend that title. Our team is in a great position to win it all again, with a number of key players returning to the team who were part of last year's title run, along with several newcomers poised to make a big impact. We already have a key win over 12th ranked USC-Cardinal and will continue to build our resume as the season continues. This year the national tournament is hosted in Pennsylvania and is happening at the end of April. With flights to the east coast being really expensive, along with rising hotel costs, any donation you can make will be extremely helpful for our team! If you are unable to donate, spreading the word is just as powerful! We appreciate anything you could do to help us represent UCLA at the highest level of collegiate club sports!
