On July 7, 2017, Sev Hrywnak and Dave Magley announced the formation of a new professional basketball league. Magley previously served as commissioner for the National Basketball League of Canada (NBLC).[4] Hrywnak was the owner of the Rochester Razorsharks. Teams are based throughout the United States and Western Canada. Over the course of two years, the league administration located cities that formerly hosted basketball teams in the defunct Continental Basketball Association, the Premier Basketball League, defunct NBA teams and other potential sports markets. The purpose of the league is to provide opportunities for community involvement particularly schools from the elementary to high school levels. Programs include players reading to younger children, hosting basketball camps for teens, and speaking in school-wide assemblies about substance abuse and staying in school.[5]
The league launched its inaugural 2018 season with eight teams: the Albany Patroons, Kansas City Tornados, Kentucky Thoroughbreds, Nevada Desert Dogs, Ohio Cardinals, Rochester Razorsharks, Vancouver Knights, and the Yakima SunKings. The Ohio Cardinals were replaced mid-season by the Ohio Bootleggers, a team operated by the former ownership of the Vancouver Knights.
On February 25, 2018, Dave Magley announced that there were four more approved franchises in Bellevue, Washington; Raleigh, North Carolina; Tampa, Florida; and San Diego, California; with the goal of 16 total well-funded teams, for a 2019 season.[6]
During the second season, there were many canceled and rescheduled games.[9] The league cut its season short, with the New York Court Kings and Kansas City Tornadoes either folding or ceasing operations for the season.[10]
Prior to the third season, the league added the Columbus Condors, Dayton Flight, Dallas Skyline, Gulf Coast Lions, Indy Express, Lewisville Yellow Jackets, and the Tri-State Admirals as expansion teams.[11][12] The San Diego Waves were replaced by expansion San Diego Armada while the Waves were being relocated, but neither team would make the 2020 schedule.[13] Due to the lack of other western teams, the Yakima SunKings and the Mesquite Desert Dogs suspended operations. The third season started in January 2020, but on March 11, 2020, the league announced the season would end prematurely due to the COVID-19 pandemic and have a four-team playoff on March 18 through 22. However, the tournament was also cancelled as most events throughout the country were closed to prevent the spread of the virus.
The league then proceeded to announce several new teams for the 2021 season, expanding from 12 teams in the curtailed 2020 season to 35 teams by January 11, 2021. Several of the added teams came from the semi-professional American Basketball Association.[14][15][16][17] In March, several teams began opting out of the season due to the ongoing pandemic restrictions.
City league plays from January to March. Team registration starts in November. Teams play 8 games and tournament follows league play. Register as a team, open to Men and Women. This league is played at Great Falls Public School gyms.

2024 will mark the 35th season of the Princeton Men's Summer Basketball League. The league will begin play in mid June. Games are played outdoors at Community Park Courts on Monday/Wednesday/Friday evenings starting at 7:15pm. The rain-site is typically Princeton High School.
The Princeton Men's Summer Basketball League (PMSBL) began in 1989 with four teams. The league was started when the Princeton High School Boys Coach at the time, Doug Snyder, approached the Recreation Department about forming a competitive summer league that would benefit both his current and former PHS players. Coach Snyder went on to serve as the commissioner of the league from 1989-1996.
Since that first summer, the league has averaged 9 teams per season and has seen hundreds of current and former college and professional players play in the league. At its 20th Anniversary celebration in 2008, the league established a Hall of Fame to honor the players, coaches and contributors that have been instrumental in helping to make PMSBL one of the premier summer leagues in the state. Click the links below to see the ever-growing list of former college and professional players, as well as an historical list of scoring titles and award winners.
Your boys and girls will get more chances to handle the basketball and develop age-appropriate basketball skills. Lower Divisions will play on 8' baskets, with smaller balls, in a 3-on-3 half-court format. Upper Divisions will enjoy 4-on-4 or 5-on-5 full court competition with standings, playoffs, and championship.
