Sport Action Zone, in partnership with Nike, the NBA and Active Communities Network is proud to announce the launch of the new basketball legacy programme which will provide facilities, training and opportunities for young people in the capital.
Nike and the NBA have pledged seed funding for a brand new 500-seater indoor court which will be built to competition standard and will be sited at the Lilian Baylis Community Hub in Kennington.
Meanwhile, American superstar and the NBA’s Most Valuable Player, LeBron James, is committed to funding four Legacy Officers who will provide coaching to young people in Lambeth, Southwark, Croydon and Brent from now until 2012.
This is a hugely exciting project and everyone can play their part:
