High School Basketball in Alberta has always been excellent.  Many great programs with long term success with new teams getting more and competitive each year have built a province wide association that always results in many excellent games.  Storied tournaments like the REB Invitational and Raymond Sugar Bowl are always highlights of the High School season.  Basketball Alberta will highlight as many of these great tournaments and regular season match ups as we can, along with posting the latest rankings in the province.
