Club1 Basketball is Northern Indiana’s premier youth basketball organization, providing leagues, camps, tournaments, and competitive club teams for thousands of boys and girls each year. Over the years, Club1 has grown into one of Indiana’s most comprehensive youth basketball organizations. Since 2007, our mission has been simple: create high-quality basketball experiences that help high school coaches build stronger programs while giving players opportunities to develop their skills, compete at a high level, and build a lifelong love for the game.
Founded by Luke Cummings as the Northeast Corner Basketball League (NCBL), the organization quickly grew into one of the largest youth basketball leagues in Northern Indiana. Originally created to provide school basketball players with meaningful offseason competition while supporting local high school programs, the league earned a reputation for organization, competitive balance, and player development.
In 2016, NCBL evolved into Club1 Basketball to better reflect our expanding vision. Today, Club1 operates more than 25 leagues, including school team leagues across Northern Indiana and the Fort Wayne Basketball League, along with youth camps, tournaments, and Club1 Prime travel basketball. Together, these programs serve thousands of boys and girls throughout Northern Indiana each year. Our events serve athletes from Fort Wayne, Northeast Indiana, Northwest Indiana, North Central Indiana, and the South Bend region.
For nearly 20 years, Club1 Basketball has been committed to developing players, supporting coaches, and strengthening basketball communities throughout Northern Indiana. Whether you’re just beginning your basketball journey or competing at the highest levels of youth basketball, Club1 is committed to helping every player reach their full potential.
Club1 Basketball is led by experienced basketball professionals who have dedicated their careers to developing athletes, supporting coaches, and growing the game throughout Northern Indiana. Founded by former University of Saint Francis coaches Luke Cummings, Chad LaCross, and Todd Martin, Club1 was built on a passion for teaching the game the right way, supporting high school basketball programs, and creating meaningful opportunities for young athletes.
Our mission is to provide the best youth basketball experiences in Northern Indiana for players, parents, coaches, and high school programs. We fulfill that mission by combining decades of coaching experience, a deep understanding of player development, knowledge of the college recruiting process, and nearly 20 years of building one of Indiana’s largest youth basketball organizations.
From school team leagues and the Fort Wayne Basketball League to camps, tournaments, and Club1 Prime travel basketball, every Club1 program is designed to help athletes improve their skills, compete in a positive environment, and develop a lifelong love for the game.
At Club1, we believe basketball is about more than wins and losses. It’s about building confidence, developing character, learning teamwork, and preparing young athletes for success both on and off the court. Whether a player is just beginning their basketball journey or striving to compete at the highest levels, Club1 is committed to helping every athlete grow, improve, and reach their full potential.
At Club1, we help every player Find Their Greatness.
