Commisioners Note:

After some consideration of canceling the league, it was ultimately decided that GBBL will enter Season 5. The future of this league depends on the actions of each of the 30 players that join.
- If you are joining just for the sake of winter Cardio - DO NOT JOIN THIS LEAGUE
- If you are looking to play competitive basketball with NBA level calls & refereeing, DO NOT JOIN THIS LEAGUE
- If you can't help getting into arguments, disputes, shouting, being disrespectful, trash talking, DO NOT JOIN THIS LEAGUE
- If you can't elevate your teammates & brothers on and off the court, DO NOT JOIN THIS LEAGUE

This year there will be zero nonsense tolerated. It will be one strike and you're out and will be based soley on the commissioners discretion (with no refunds). If you can't accept that, think its not fair, DO NOT JOIN THIS LEAGUE. This is an amateur pickup ball league that's run the best it can with very few people helping in any way. Calls & rules will not be perfect but will be respected. The 30 players 'chosen' to join the league will be held to higher standards this season. There's many people waiting to join but we choose to run the league with select individuals for a reason. If those individuals are no longer a good fit they will be replaced after this season (or during if any altercation). This includes attendance, fighting and any actions deemed harmful to the league.

After going through some major personal challenges, I am excited to continue this league and join you all on the court. Please make my life easier by adhering to everything you've just read.
