A historic Niagara basketball club that has been at the heart of the community for decades.
Pelham Panthers Basketball is a community-driven club focused on teaching fundamentals, building confidence, and creating a positive, competitive environment for athletes at every level. From first-time players to travel teams. We’re here to develop great players and great people.
We teach the game the right way. Footwork, shooting form, spacing, defence, and decision-making. With age-appropriate coaching and a clear progression. Players build real skills, not just highlights.
From house league to select/travel options, our programs are designed to meet athletes where they are. Beginners, multi-sport kids, and competitive players alike. The goal is growth, enjoyment, and sense of belonging.
For athletes ready to level up, we offer competitive programming for both boys & girls from U10 – U19 that includes select/travel opportunities and development options designed to support long-term progression. This also Includes high-level girls pathways (JUEL program).
The Panthers are built by local coaches, volunteers, and families who care about Niagara youth sport. We create a supportive, team-first environment where players learn leadership, sportsmanship, and accountability.
