Overview
Mission
Youth girls' basketball organization for 3rd-8th graders. This is a skills-based program aiming to develop physical, mental, and emotional competencies of the athletes through competition. We provide an opportunity to learn and enhance their skills and knowledge of basketball through a team environment. Players within our organization would have affiliation with Millard West High School and have intention of attending the high school in the future.
What it reported doing in 2025
Lady Cat Tournament - Youth basketball tournament for approximately 100 local teams ranging from 3rd-8th grade. Tournament held over one weekend in Fall and is our largest fundraiser to support our Lady Cat teams. The funds we raise from the tournament are primarily used to help our Lady Cat teams pay the admission of leagues and tournaments entered. The proceeds also used towards other program expenses such as coaching, website/communication apps, insurance, and other costs of running the basketball organization.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 73% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.

The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
