San Francisco Gay Basketball Association

Gaymen, Rambros are League Champions of CBL26

Jun 21st, 2011

Rambros capture ‘B’ Title over Fighting Unicorns 30-20 in defensive struggle: The Rambros won an ugly game in which the Unicorns scored a season low 20 points. It wasn’t a beautiful game for the ‘Bros either, they scored just 30 points, their second lowest total of the season. The Rambros took advantage of the a Christophe-less Unicorn team. In a game without much offense, Mark Martin discovered his shot, hitting better than 50% for the first time this season, leading the ‘Bros with 18 points. The Unicorns were led by Nick Daniels’ 13 points and 9 rebounds.

Have you ever wondered how you can give back to the SFGBA? Well, stop wondering and get doing. For the fourth consecutive year, the SFGBA has been awarded a booth to sell beer and water at the San Francisco Gay Pride on Sunday, June 26.

We are looking for 36 volunteers to work in the booth for a minimum of a 4-hour shift. Not only is this our biggest fundraiser of the year (which keeps our Sunday Open Gyms open and subsidizes the Castro League), it really is a LOT OF FUN and a great way to hang out with your basketball peers as well as meet Pride attendees!

If interested, please register below:

Roland will also make a special appearance at tonight’s games to shame you into signing up. Please take a little time this year to help us out. It’s fun and a great way to support gay basketball in SF. Husbands/wives/partners/lovers are welcome to volunteer, too.

If you have any other questions, please reach out to Roland, Stuart, or Brian Pearlman.
