The Metro Summer Basketball League (MSBL) is an NCAA sanctioned summer basketball league, therefore we do not charge admission. In order to make this league possible we rely on sponsorships from local businesses to help cover the cost of operation (gym rental, website, ref and staff wages, t-shirts, jerseys, and equipment). We recently moved from Council Bluffs to Omaha. As a result we are in need of new sponsors. As a sponsor you will have advertisement on our website, programs, and t-shirts. You can also advertise at the gym with any banners or posters. Please contact me via email if you are interested in sponsoring the Metro Summer Basketball League (see Contact Us page).
