Does it field a women’s basketball team?
Yes. Labette Community College reported 9 women’s basketball participants in the Equity in Athletics return it filed for 2025-26. That is the institution’s own count of the squad, not a roster page Athlavia has read, and it is the figure the United States Department of Education publishes.
It competes in NJCAA (junior college), and no conference affiliation is recorded here. It is one of 19 NJCAA women's basketball programmes in Kansas, out of 47 programmes there in total.
The athletics department’s own site is where the current roster and coaching staff are published.
Can it award a basketball scholarship?
NJCAA Divisions I and II permit athletically-related student aid; Division III does not. The federal return records the association but not the division, so this page does not state which applies here.
Labette Community College reported athletically-related student aid awarded to women in its most recent federal return. The amount is the total across every women’s sport at the institution — basketball, and also volleyball, soccer, track, swimming and the rest. It is not a basketball budget, and it is not what one player receives.
Read alone it is routinely mistaken for a per-player offer. Inside Athlavia it sits next to the squad size, the division's own limits and the published cost, which is the only way it means anything.
It is one of 43 institutions in Kansas whose return reports athletic aid awarded to women, out of 47 that field women’s basketball at all.
What it costs and what it is like
No cost snapshot is held for Labette Community College. Athlavia will not print an estimate in its place — tuition varies by residency, by course and by year, and a made-up number is worse than an empty one. The institution’s own admissions pages carry the published figures.

How it compares
Across the 346 NJCAA women’s basketball programmes in this database, the average listed squad is 13 players. Labette Community College lists 9, 4 players below that average. Among the 19 NJCAA programmes in Kansas, it has the 18th largest listed squad.
Squad size is a fact about the return, not a judgement about the programme. A large squad can mean depth or it can mean a long bench; a small one can mean minutes are available or that the roster is already settled. It is a question to ask a coach, not an answer.
