These lessons extend into their daily lives, helping them succeed both academically and personally.

4. Family Involvement and Support: Families are a critical part of our program’s success. We encourage parents and guardians to actively support their athletes throughout the season by attending games, participating in team events, and supporting fundraising efforts.

Players will participate in competitive games that challenge them and help them improve. Additionally, the program offers players the opportunity to showcase their skills in various tournaments and leagues, which can open doors for future opportunities in basketball.

6. Dedication to Academic Excellence: While basketball is important, we prioritize the academic success of our athletes. Players will be encouraged to maintain a strong balance between their athletic and academic responsibilities. Coach Abercrombie and the coaching staff work with players to ensure they stay focused on their studies, supporting their success both on the court and in the classroom.

7. School and Community Pride: Being part of Linganore Boys Basketball means representing the school with pride. Players are ambassadors for the Linganore community, and they take that responsibility seriously.

We believe that when players and their families join the Linganore Boys Basketball program, they are not only joining a team but becoming part of a legacy of hard work, growth, and achievement. Together, we build a tradition of excellence that stretches far beyond the basketball court.
