At St. Mary Magdalene, our basketball program is more than just a game – it’s a ministry of faith, teamwork, and growth. Each season, our young athletes learn the values of perseverance, sportsmanship, and community, all while strengthening their love for the game, for one another, and for Jesus Christ.
To celebrate their hard work and dedication, we gather at the end of each season for our annual awards banquets. These special moments are a time to honor the effort, progress, and spirit of every player, coach, and family who makes this program possible.
Here, you'll find a collection of season recap videos, capturing the highlights, triumphs, and joy shared on and off the court. We invite you to relive these cherished memories and celebrate the incredible journey of our athletes.
