The National Junior Basketball League is a nonprofit organization formed in 1984 by Dennis Murphy, Jr., with the vision of young boys and girls from the first through the twelfth grades and their families being involved in youth basketball. The program is designed to develop basketball skills, good sportsmanship, and team competition. NJB has chapters throughout California and nationwide as far as Hawaii, Washington state, Michigan, New Jersey, Arizona and Florida.
