History
In the early 90’s the Yellowknife High Performance Girls Basketball Program was created to help athletes develop their basketball skills and play at a competitive level. Over the years this program has evolved with different names and goals all while producing post-secondary athletes. Since the 90’s there has also been a number of grass root programs that have helped develop girls’ basketball in the Territory; B&B Youth Hoops, Steve Nash Youth Basketball, Go (Girls Only) Basketball and Jr. NBA. The Eagles Club Basketball Program is a product of all these programs and hard work of dedicated volunteers.
