Practices are at Bethesda Church
11901 Bethesda Church Rd, Damascus, MD 20872
Our program is geared to develop competitive teams. Yet we seek to find a place for every athlete that comes out for a sport. While we are not a "Rec" program, we will invest in every player to see them develop to the potential for which they apply themselves.
Our Basketball SEASONS are a "Winter sport" that run during the 4 months of November through February.
For the other parts of the year, we also typically hold Open Gyms, Skills Clinics, and Sport Camps. These are valuable in helping the athletes to grow in their skills, experience, and in their friendships together.

What Force Families Have to Say ....
Coming to play for Force has been such a gift to our middle school athlete! He is very competitive and driven and loves God - to have an athletic program that combines those same values is amazing. We are so grateful for very dedicated coaches (to spiritual health and growth as well as athletic) and a wonderfully communicative and dedicated director/staff. Open gyms, conditioning, and social team building on top of practices and games are just cherries on top. Thanks, Force!
