| 6 seconds ago
History was made in Lagos at the weekend as hundreds of young basketball talents from across Nigeria stormed the newly renovated Dolphins Basketball Court for the groundbreaking SSA- Templar-Adrenale National Basketball Combine, a first-of-its-kind grassroots basketball development event backed by the Presidency.
The atmosphere was electric as players, parents, guardians, coaches, scouts, and sports stakeholders gathered in large numbers for what many described as a defining moment for grassroots sports development in Nigeria.
Organised through the partnership between the Office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Grassroots Sports Development and the Templar-Adrenale Athlete Development Initiative, the event brought together over 200 young basketball prospects from across the country for final evaluations and selections into an international-standard athlete development programme.
