No Books No Ball Basketball Program
35 years of teaching more than just basketball.

Congratulations to 🚫📚🚫🏀 alum (Taina Mair) on being selected in the 1st Round, 14th pick by the Seattle Storm!

From the very beginning, Taina, you’ve been a star—on the court and in the classroom. Soon to be graduating from the prestigious Duke University, you’ve shown what it truly means to balance excellence in academics and athletics.

Since your P*e Wee days, your passion, toughness, and scrappy style set you apart. And as part of a co-ed program, you’ve always stepped on the court ready to compete—never backing down from the boys.

Keep inspiring the next generation of lady hoopers who are watching your journey and dreaming big because of you.

Your NBNB and Boston family are SO proud of you. Much love always 💙

No Books No Ball Basketball Program continues to stress the importance of education first. We are proud to highlight our reading literacy program across all of our divisions:

•P*e Wee (Ages 7–9)
•Juniors (Ages 10–13)
•Youth (Ages 14–17)

This mini series captures how our student-athletes take part in academic programming before each of their games. From reading literacy for our younger divisions to college and career readiness support for our older student-athletes, we remain committed to preparing them for success both on and off the court.

For our Youth Division, we also implemented Your Next Play: Paths During & After High School, which provides structure around college, career, and postsecondary planning.

All of our student-athletes are required to participate in these academic programs before each of their games, helping them stay sharp academically while preparing for life outside of basketball.

Thank you to all of our sponsors and supporters.

“Over 30 years of teaching more than basketball.”
