The Linden Amateur Basketball Association (LABA) will stage its U23 3×3 Championship tomorrow at the Retrieve Hard-court from 16:00hrs.
This was confirmed by an official release from the entity. The clubs under the umbrella of LABA that are slated to compete are Victory Valley Royals, Retrieve Raiders, Kid Rock Blazers, Block 22 Flames, Sixers and Kings.
Colts Basketball Club and Kwakwani Untouchables, who are members of the Georgetown Amateur Basketball Association (GABA), will also feature in the form of two teams respectively.
LABA President Rawle Toney, “Kwakwani has signaled their interest in registering under the LABA, so while that process is being undertaken, we will facilitate the club. However, if the team isn’t registered by the start of our league, they will have to continue playing under the GABA until next season.”
He noted that the appearance of Colts in the event was done in an effort to make the tournament more competitive, whilst also affording the GABA the opportunity to remain active.
Meanwhile, Guyana Breweries has thrown its support behind the event by donating trophies and liquid refreshments. The presentation which was hosted at the entity’s Beterverwagting, East Coast Demerara office, was done by Brand Manager Seweon McGarrell.
