Where DBA Has Played in Winnipeg Since 2022

Since its first season in 2022, DBA has played most of its seasons in City of Winnipeg community centre gyms. Greendell Community Centre has hosted Monday games every fall since 2024. The spring 2025 and spring 2026 seasons were at Battle204, and both summer 3v3 seasons were at Lord Roberts Community Centre.

Disciples Basketball Association (DBA) is a men's basketball league in Winnipeg, and five of the eight fall 2026 teams played in earlier DBA seasons. The results for each season are on our past seasons and champions page.

Monday games were at Greendell again in fall 2025, and fall 2026 Mondays are at 75 Woodlawn Ave., about 1 km from St. Vital Centre. A 2017 upgrade, funded by the Province and the City, added air conditioning to the gym.

DBA hosted Season 4 and spring 2026 at Battle204

DBA hosted Season 4 at Battle204, the gym also known as Westend Athletics, in Winnipeg's West End. The basketball gym opened in August 2024. Its wall mural reads "The City Game Never Sleeps".

The summer 2026 season had six teams playing Tuesdays from July 7, 2026, at 7, 8 and 9 pm. The last games were September 1. For the format, see our 3x3 league page.

Linden Woods Community Centre hosted the spring 2026 finals

Linden Woods Community Centre hosted both spring 2026 finals on June 19, 2026: Showstoppers against Hoodhoopz in Tier 1, and Showstoppers II against Thunder in Tier 2. Each tier's winner received a DBA glass trophy and each Finals MVP a $40 DBA gift card. Plays of the week V4 covers both finals.

Fall 2026 games are at Greendell and Valour community centres

Fall 2026 has eight teams, and its first games were October 19 and 23, 2026. Monday games are at Greendell Community Centre, and Friday games are at Valour Community Centre (Isaac Brock site). Valour formed in 2006 from the Clifton, Isaac Brock and Orioles community centres.

Media day was October 9, 2026, at Archwood Community Centre, which isn't one of the game gyms. It was DBA's first media day. Our DBA gyms page has the details for both game nights.

DBA's gyms have certified refs and streamed games

Most DBA seasons have been played in indoor gyms at City-owned community centres. Fall 2026 has certified refs on every 5v5 game.

DBA games are streamed live on our YouTube channel, and we post a player of the game after every game.

Past champions have received a glass trophy, and DBA has also given out an MVP jersey and a Finals MVP gift card. The founding post in 2022 said DBA was about "bringing men together as a community", and the Showstoppers have played every season since.
