ABOUT US

Thank you for visiting Windsor Bridgeans Organization

The Windsor Bridgeans Organization (WBO) started in 2011 by two (2) brothers, Reggie and Russ. Windsor Bridgeans Organization is a non profit organization, a filipino sports group that focuses on basketball and other sports activities in the Windsor and Essex County. The name was established by  Mr. Gil Panganiban, founder of The North American Basketball Association (NABA) and an avid advisor of WBO.

We are also dedicated to greater diversity within the organization and provide a fun, safe, healthy, respectful, rewarding, and equal sports experience to people of all culture, genders, age, abilities and status in the community.

Windsor Bridgeans Organization compete annually in the North American Basketball Association (NABA) tournament during the Labour Day Weekend. With the support of families, friends, donations, and sponsorships, we plan every year to send 4 or 5 teams to compete at the highest amateur level. NABA is known to be the largest filipino tournament in North America where nearly 160 teams from Canada and USA compete in various age divisions. The tournament has become so widely recognized that an organization from London, England travels every year to compete. Windsor being the smallest city to compete, has accomplished great heights by placing 3rd place in the ladies open (all ages) and juvenile (U17) divisions.

We take pride in developing a genuine sense of loyalty and aspire to help our youth and adults achieve high standards of fair play and good sportsmanship. At the same time, we like to maintain good culture by volunteering our services throughout the community and donate when we can.
