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.

Is this a joke, I thought April fool is past? Are sure that BSA will not cancel this one also?
Come Joe, prepare for and expect the best;-) Whether it will happen or not, rewarding ballers for their effort is key to maintaining momentum. It is a honour to be recognised as the best player your province has in that position.
At U16 level they play because they love the game. Lets not let cynicism put a wet blanket on their enthusiasm. For allot of young people this may be the best thing that will ever happen to them. Be positive, for their sake!
how can natal be power house it definatly has to be gauteng. hope they are preparing to defend their tittle they won in style last year in limpopo. the closesest team limpopo they pumped by 50 points in the group stages and by 25 in finals . stanley mosdise and mlungisi mahlatinin these two with the mvp justin paton tore up teams so easily. i wont forget to mention the supporting cast, the terminator from rosina grabbed board after board, slick from pretoria boys phillip from st bennies and the silent assasin no 11 from st bennies. what a balanced team. hope this years coaches understand whats at stake cause last year natal choked to limpopo in the final and will be bcoming back with a vengence.
BSA's job is to select and prepare national teams for international competition and providing monitoring and control for provincial fed operations. provinces need to bid for IPTs, it's the only way forward. you show you can put sponsorship together and great facilities for the tournie – you get the tournie! we need to stop relying on BSA to figure out our lives for us. they should be facilitators to bball development not the other way around.

Who would like to help me with a school project ?? — I am a DHS student and have an assignment relating to how basketball has changed or influenced the reputation of Durban High School. I am a keen basketball player at DHS and know that DHS is involved lots with practices and so forth, but I’m new at the school and don’t know much about the history of B-ball there.
Can anyone offer a little history on the subject and especially how DHS is viewed within the basketball community.
Thanking you all — Aaron Gyure Class of 2014.
