The Best of Youth Basketball was on display at the Dubai Sports World, as the GEMS Sports Series powered by East Sports Management (ESM) held the 2nd edition of its annual GEMS Basketball Cup.
The 2019 edition took place from 19th – 24th June and was a huge success with over 450 youth players from 23 schools across the UAE taking part.
Along with the Boys U10, U12, U14, U16 and Girls U12 categories from 2018, this year’s tournament saw the introduction of the Girls U10, U14 and U16 categories giving aspiring young female basketballers a competitive platform to learn and showcase their talents.
