About
DMV Muslim League
Faith. Fitness. Fellowship. — The pillars of Muslim League.
Mission
Why We Exist
Muslim League was founded on a simple belief: Muslim communities deserve dedicated spaces to compete, connect, and grow together. Sports have always been a natural gathering ground — and ML gives that tradition an organized home. DMV ML is the DC/Maryland/Virginia chapter of this national movement, serving the diverse Muslim community through competitive basketball and soccer leagues.
Origin
Our Story
It started with a few friends in Central Jersey — CJML (Central Jersey Muslim League) — who wanted to play competitive basketball without it feeling like a strangers' pickup game. They wanted to know the people they played with. To pray together before tip-off. To grab food after.
That model worked. CJML grew and the vision expanded. ML became a national brand — a franchise model that any Muslim community can adopt. DMV ML launched to bring that same energy to DC, Maryland, and Virginia. Today we run seasonal basketball and soccer leagues, with camps and tournaments on the horizon.
