This is the schedule for now. There WILL likely be some shifts or cancellations due to unpredicted shifts in LWHS Fall Ball sports schedules (aka Volleyball/Dance) that get priority gym access over LWBBA. We will communicate with those as we know it!

Special Note For Varsity Teams: There are some conflicts between Tues practices times and Bellevue games. Bellevue games will take priority. For example, there may be a Tuesday night where Varsity Purple plays at Bellevue college, and Varsity White has practice as LWHS because they don’t have a game (or vice versa). Coaches will communicate about those with players, and we will update Tuesday info on this website.
