Reach One Teach One Building Bridges to Success Basketball Summer Camp in Montserrat kicks off on Monday Evening
Montserrat's highly anticipated Reach One Teach One Building Bridges to Success Summer Basketball Camp is set to open on Monday the 17th of July with the first evening session.
The camp has had to revise it’s start schedule due to a number of reasons beyond it’s control. Local Co-ordicator of the camp Mr Vachel Murrain says a decision was made to cancel Monday’s opening ceremony and the sessions for the younger campers.
He says the camp will still start on the Monday, with the evening sessions for the older campers 16-24 years from 6pm to 8:30pm.
The sessions will be led by UK based Coaches Jackson Gibbons and Junior Williams and will close with a prize-giving ceremony and exhibition game between an elite team made up of basketball players from the camp and a select Montserrat team.
Five prominent sponsors have rallied support to ensure the success of this week-long event. The Ministry of Education, Youth Affairs & Sports, I-Mobile/Vision Center, M.S. Osborne, Shamrock Industries Ltd, and BMN Airlines have all committed to facilitating the smooth delivery of the summer basketball camp, scheduled to take place from July 17th to 21st, 2023.
