Season Overview

The Juniors team at CBRC is built around the core values of teamwork, sportsmanship, hard work, and accountability. At the heart of our program is the singular goal to give youth in the Greater Tacoma area the very best opportunities to not only excel at an athletic endeavor, but to grow into healthy, capable adults and citizens.
