Osseo Maple Grove Basketball Association

OMGBA provides a great basketball experience for about 2000 players at a very affordable price. Unfortunately a number of long time board members whose children have long since graduated have stepped down and we need your help. Many board members are performing multiple volunteer jobs and as you can see below by the list of openings, we need your help to keep the program going at the same quality level and at the same value.

Many positions don't require basketball knowledge and many don't require membership on the board. Some of the positions have historically been done by one person, but could be split up into 2 or 3 positions if you only are interested in one aspect of a position.

Our volunteers help with coaching, scheduling practices, games, and referees, as well as organizing tournaments, supervising tournament sites, concessions, and clinics. A volunteer places orders for all the uniforms, awards, and equipment and another handles our insurance. Even this web page is maintained by a board member.

We especially need help from our Traveling Team Parents for the boys and girls tournaments we host each November. All traveling player's parents are expected to help. Some areas we need help are running the scorebook, the time clock, concessions, the gate, site supervisor, and more. We've got multiple locations to staff over a Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, so we need lots of volunteers. Your help is appreciated.

Running a community basketball organization serving about 2000 kids each year is a lot of work made easier by lots of volunteers, but we really could use more help.

If you can step up and help out the kids, even just for a few hours, please contact the OMGBA President for more information, or attend an OMGBA Board Meeting which are held the 3rd Monday of every month (except July - no meeting) at the Maple Grove Community Center (except June - we meet offsite) at 7:00p.m.
