Mission Statement
The National Basketball Retired Players Association serves former professional basketball players, supporting them in life after their playing days, and helping them to leverage their inspirational influence to promote and teach basketball in their communities.
About This Cause
With energetic corporate leadership and a unified Board, the future has never been brighter at the NBRPA. The Association provides a host of programs, services and benefits designed to help retired basketball players and their families successfully navigate life after the game. In support of its membership, the NBRPA proactively offers a full menu of education, health, finance and career/life transition benefits to retired basketball players and their families. Working in conjunction with the NBA and NBPA, the NBRPA’s membership promotes basketball and enhances the sport’s image by building community relationships and fostering support for charitable activities and philanthropic events with a connection to the game. By playing in the NBA, ABA, WNBA or with the Harlem Globetrotters, NBRPA members helped build the game of basketball and – through the distinction of an on-court professional career at the sport’s highest levels – remain ambassadors to the game for life. NBRPA members embody the game long after taking the court professionally and put their notoriety to positive use as spokespersons and conduits of good will in the basketball community. As you know, the NBRPA’s two-fold mission provides our members with a unique opportunity to create a tremendous impact on the youth within our communities. Through a growing and vibrant chapter program and a focused Legends Care initiative, we have made charitable outreach one of this organization’s greatest attributes. Our Full Court Press: Prep for Success youth clinic series remains our cornerstone Legends Care program; however, in recent years, new programs have been added to our Legends Care initiative that establish us as leaders in the Historically Black College and University (HBCU) space, provide school supplies for underserved communities, increase support for young girls through mentorship, and improve the spaces in which our children learn the game of basketball. This is just the beginning of our work and we couldn’t be prouder of this growth. The future of our organizational impact is limitless with the support of our members. Simply put, we can't do this important work alone and ask that you join us in this effort to maximize our societal impact. As former players, our community has an invaluable role in teaching and nurturing the next generation
