About
LBA Leagues is a sports and recreation program where participants play basketball, baseball, football, volleyball, bowling, and chess. Over 3,000 players are organized into over 500 teams that play weekly and advance to competitive end-of-season playoffs.
• Ages: 6–18 years old
• Schedule: Over 3,000 players, organized into over 500 teams, play weekly, leading up to competitive end-of-season play-offs.
LBA Leagues offers Junior, Teen, and Adult divisions, and includes LBA Special, an exclusive team for children with special needs. The program is run like a national sports league, with branded jerseys, bags, and baseball caps, and weekly scores and standings published for fans. Team and individual trophies are given to season winners. LBA provides professional coaches and professional coaching. The organization focuses on Middos and Derech Eretz, including Avery & Jay’s reward cards for outstanding Middos. Local businesses sponsor LBA teams and receive high-level exposure through sponsorship. LBA works with local schools and yeshivos as Chinuch partners and is in close contact with the posek R’ Moshe Zev Feldman for guidance. Its marketing positioning is “Pro Sports Leagues For Smart Boys & Men” and “Pro Marketing For Smart Brands and Businesses.”
In the summer of 2017, founder Shimon Friedman received permission to use the gym at Yeshivas Mayan HaTorah and organized the initial games. He states, “My ultimate goal is that everyone who comes into contact with LBA should be positively impacted- players, fans, sponsors and the community as a whole.”
Parents and sponsors describe LBA Leagues as a “fantastic program in which every child feels like a winner” and “the best outlet you can ever give these boys.” One parent shares that her son said he wanted “to learn extra Gemara because Hashem made his team win,” and another reports her son came home saying he had “tons of fun” even though his team lost by two points. A parent of a bowling participant says, “LBA Bowling Junior is so well run…every kid is involved and loving it.” A follower comments that it “looks like it’s run so well and you keep on expanding and perfecting it.”
