Bermuda Basketball Association where you at?
They’ll be there too
Should be a great experience for all our youth as well as give them the opportunity to discover a new sport. Kudos to all those who have put this event together.
Futsal, the fastest growing sport in the world not represented?
Maybe they come under jurisdiction of BFA? Just guessing here.
