Overview
Mission
The West Coast Jamborees purpose is to promote high school girls basketball programs and high school girls athletes by organizing a girls basketball tournament each year. The tournament generates income for high school programs and is an opportunity for female athletes to play in one of the largest tournaments in the country.
What it reported doing in 2024
Our sole event is the West Coast Jamboree itself. Last year, 104 teams and approximately 1,500 girls played in the tournament. 150 games were played at nine different sites from Dec. 28-30, 2024.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
