Giants of Africa, the non-profit organisation co-founded by Masai Ujiri, has inaugurated its 50th community basketball court in Africa, reaching the halfway mark of its ambitious pledge to build 100 courts across the continent.
The milestone launch of the 50th basketball court under the Giants of Africa “Built Within” initiative was celebrated on Monday at the historic premises of King’s College Lagos, as basketball, music and entertainment combined to deliver a memorable experience for pupils, parents and members of the community.
The newly completed modern basketball facility, situated within the school grounds on Lagos Island, forms part of GOA’s ambitious target of constructing 100 courts across Africa to promote youth development through sports.
The court was built by Webber Engineering, whose Chief Executive Officer, Babalola, is a former basketball player turned sports entrepreneur.
