Men's Basketball Program

The men's basketball team made history in the summer of 2015 when it had won the second division basketball tournament and was immediately promoted to the 2016 Lebanese Basketball League.

The Lebanese Second Division basketball championship came to an end, with Louaize grabbing the title by defeating Antranik 3-1 in the final series. The last game in the series, was taking place at Centre Demerdjian, and Louaize, led by Joe Mansour (191-F-77) who scored 31 points managed to beat Antranik 68-65 in front of a large crowd. On the other hand, Tarek Khersan was Antranik's best scorer with 15 points. Nevertheless, both teams were promoted to the first division and will now be looking to sign new players to strengthen their squads. Finally, Father Charbel Haddad, the Louaize club president, said that the team has now achieved its first goal, and the next step is to establish a plan for the first division championship in order to be able to compete with all teams.
