About the AEBL
The AEBL Summer Pro-Am League founded in 2010 by Commissioner Jahi Rawlings is Atlanta’s premiere live sports and entertainment event that takes place every summer for 10 weeks on Atlanta’s Westside. AEBL hosts many other events and programs throughout the year including Youth Summer Camps, The 24 High School All-Star Game, HBCU Elite 100 Camps, Celebrity Hoops Challenge, The SneakerBall Gala, and a Sports, Music & Entertainment Summit. There is also the AEBL Women’s Summer Pro-Am League and Jr. AEBL.
Over the years, AEBL events have seen more than 30K attendees, involving more than 5K athletes, and impacting 50K local youth.
“What makes AEBL different is the fact that we have elevated the hoop ecosystem of a city that wasn’t previously considered a major basketball city,” Rawlings said. “Creating and forging a cultural connection with the sports, music and entertainment industries in the community.
“I’m most proud about the work and dedication we’ve done building people and creating opportunities not just for our players on the court but staff off the court. Distribution on the NBA App is major for a growing pro-am league like ours. It allows us to have more exposure and reach to basketball fans across the world.”
