The league was founded in 2006 by a group of Damonte Ranch High School parents who wanted a viable basketball league in South Reno. In 2009, we became a non-profit 501(c)(3) under the name Damonte Ranch Youth Basketball before eventually changing our name in 2015 to its current name of Sierra Nevada Basketball.

The league started off strictly in the Winter only with approximately 120 players, ranging from 3rd-6th grade. Today, that same Winter league has over 500 players and has expanded to include a Spring K-2nd grade league, Fall 3rd-6th grade league, and a competitive travel program for both the boys and girls. We also run several camps throughout the year, as well as hosting tournaments for other travel programs and high school teams.
