Bri tollie (Women’s + director)
My name is Brishonne (Bri) Tollie, and I’m excited to run for Women’s+ Director for DCGBL.
Over the past year, I’ve been deeply invested in helping build and grow our Women’s+ division. As a team captain, I’ve helped recruit new players, support league operations, organize
practices, and create opportunities for more women to get involved. I was also honored to be part of DCGBL’s first Women’s+ team to compete at the NGBA National Tournament, where we brought home the 2025 National Championship. This year, I’m helping lead the effort to send two Women’s+ teams to the 2026 NGBA National Tournament—a milestone that reflects how quickly our division is growing.
If elected, my goal is to continue building a Women’s+ division that is welcoming, competitive, and built to last. I want to increase participation, expand programming beyond league play, strengthen our leadership pipeline by building a Women’s+ board and committee structure, and create more opportunities for player development, community engagement, and national competition. I also want to ensure the Women’s+ division has a strong voice in league decisions and continues to grow as an integral part of DCGBL.
DCGBL has become much more than a basketball league to me—it’s a community that I’m proud to invest my time and energy into. It would be an honor to serve as your Women’s+ Director and continue working alongside all of you to build a division that current and future players are proud to call home.
Noreen gentry (Director at large)
I’m running for the Women’s + Director at Large position to help support and grow the league in our 2nd season. I’ve played in a lot of different basketball leagues in the DMV and 
want to help make the DCGBL Women’s+ division fun, competitive, and sustainable for future seasons. In this role, I want to help build on the successes from last year and center ongoing player feedback, so that the league can continue to improve this season.
