In 2007 after getting frustrated at the lack of information about the game he loved in South Africa, Victor decided to start Mybasketball and he hasn't looked back. For close to 15 years, Victor has experienced the game as a player, a coach, a spectator and now from a media perspective. The whole purpose of Mybasketball is to keep the fans informed about the game and anything related to it; whether it is here in SA, Africa or Overseas. Victor has made some great friends along the way and rekindled some amazing friendships through the game.. Some of those friends have joined him on this crusade to make basketball better for everyone, and he looks forward to a South Africa where basketball gets the credit it deserves and the focus is on youth development and improving the coaches.

Well I guesse they have to keep the copies flying off the shelve. I would love to have that writer’s understanding and logic. But yeah man, we lost to Moz in Moz. There were other factoras surrounding the game but I believe that if you kill the game early the other factors will be non-factors.
The best way to move forward is to start now investing in the future. Bring in new blood when the pressure of qualifying and playing in Afro basket is not there. Lets hope we can overcome what just happened and focus on SA basketball.

It is my opinion that we need a proper development and high perfomance strategy for bball. We cannot plan for the qualifiers in six months, we need to conduct a proper ananlysis of where we need to improve and and how?
As I have always argued only an intergrated development strategy will work, not the hit and miss approach we have been pratising. In short, from school level to national team level, we need to ensure that basketball is competetive. We cannot afford to have a situtation where we all know that come nationals GP or KZN is going to win.
