What is Lit Basketball?

Leaders In Training (LIT) is a Southcoast Massachusetts based basketball organization. Leaders In Training is designed to better our participants as players, students and citizens of their respective communities. LIT intends to increase each and every player's knowledge and ability of the game of basketball as well as other life skills needed to excel off the court.
