Operating in the poorest post codes in the country, we aim to use the lessons of performance basketball to have a positive life changing impact on the young people and communities of the East End of Glasgow. We aim to give everyone the opportunity to progress to performance level sport if they desire to, whilst providing quality outlets for those who don’t want to progress to remain within physical activity. Through coach education and official’s education we aim to provide chances for young people to progress into employment in the sport that they love.
