*To also inaugurates new basketball court during the tourney
The South-East Representative on the board of the Nigeria Basketball Federation (NBBF), Ugo Udezue, will host a three-day South-East Basketball Tournament in Ebonyi State.
This event has been confirmed for June 5 to June 7.
Udezue, who is also the AFA Sports CEO, said the programme is part of efforts to promote grassroots basketball development and youth empowerment in the region.
Speaking on the tournament yesterday, Udezue said: “Ebonyi State had no viable basketball court in the whole state, but the state is producing a lot of players. Half of the Coal City Blazers (the only Premier League team in the southeast) are from Ebonyi.
