About Us

Naismith Basketball Association

Naismith Basketball is respected for its grassroots basketball programs offered to youth in Lanark County, which was incorporated as a Non-Profit Organization in November 2007.  

A sport that is founded on the core values of fairness, excellence, inclusion and fun, the Association represents all basketball interests by providing leadership, coordination and direction in the promotion of health and wellness through sport and physical activity.

We offer inclusion and accessibility in community team spirit programs that focus on youth aged 7-17 years. The Association is responsible for increasing the "Naismith" brand through awareness initiatives and is mindful of the past, present and future, building on the legacy of our inventor and taking pride in our community.

"Be strong in body, clean in mind, lofty in ideals"  Dr. James Naismith
