The Northwest Sports Club is the original home school basketball organization in the Indianapolis area, founded in 1989 by Jack Baumgardner. The 2013-2014 season was their 25th year of lacing up and hitting the hardwood.
The Northwest Warrior club is organized to provide home-educated children at least 10 years of age (as of September 1 of the current season) an opportunity to enjoy competitive basketball while developing Christian character, basketball skills, and physical fitness.
The Northwest Warriors currently call Traders Point Christian Church their primary home, with home games at Traders Point Christian Academy. The Traders Point facilities are located at 6590 S. Indianapolis Rd, Whitestown, IN 46075.
The Warriors offer four age levels for competitive basketball: 18 & under (Varsity), 16 & under (JV), 14 & under (Junior High), and 12 & under (Elementary)
Age levels are all based on player age as of September 1st of the current season. Northwest is intended for home-educated children, and player eligibility coincides with National Tournament guidelines, which indicate that parents must be the primary facilitators of the player’s education including but not limited to classes at home, co-op environments, and other parent-arranged educational opportunities.
