Basketball in St Lucia
Basketball has seen massive growth in the Caribbean over the last few years due to the regions close proximity to America. The exposure of the sport is huge in St Lucia with NBA games broadcast on tv, and many children growing up watching the American stars.
Due to the popularity of netball in the region, there are plenty of courts of people to play the sport, many using old footballs to practise their shooting. But with the recent addition of the sport to our projects we are hoping to donate more basketballs and equipment to our groups and communities.
With basketball on the brink of taking off in St Lucia it is a very exciting time to be involved in the sport.
In our youth and community projects our aim is not only to develop basic skills but also to increase the enthusiasm, participation and enjoyment of the game. Here the emphasis is on fun! Sport is a fantastic mechanism for change and we like to use our sessions for developing social skills and team work.
Our team will be on hand to help you plan and deliver your sessions, with plenty of helpful tips and support if you need it.
