This past weekend featured more exciting MGBL action, with many hard fought games, but the sportsmanship displayed by the girls was more noteworthy than any individual victory. This week’s spotlight game took place at Ben Porat Yosef between the Bergen Veterinary Hospital team and team Washington Ave Pediatrics. It was a fast paced back and forth defensive battle, but when the final buzzer sounded the score was tied. The most remarkable thing about the game was not the score but the post-game scene. The referee told The JLNJ, “It was an amazing sight. I have refereed thousands of games, but have never seen anything like this. The girls went beyond the traditional high fives and handshakes. They were sincerely congratulating each other on a well-played game, very impressed.”
As the girl’s season approaches midseason, registration is open for the 2016-17 MGBL boys’ league. There are limited spots available as well as sponsorship opportunities, but they are filling up fast. Register today at https://www.mgbl.org/SignUpPart1.php.
MGBL is an IRS recognized 501c3 charity. In addition to having your business or family name of the back of the team’s jerseys, additional exposure will be offered to sponsors because MGBL has a reserved space in each issue of The Jewish Link and the emphasis will be to get the sponsors’ names in print as often as possible (captions, results or standings).
To sponsor a team go to https://www.mgbl.org/BecomeSponsorChoose.php or email [email protected]. For your older boys, high school registration and the second season of MGBL men’s basketball will open soon.
