We help promote and grow the sport of basketball while actively engaging with the local community. Partnering with The Black Prince Trust, we lead basketball sessions to inspire local participation. As London's only professional basketball team, we run summer camps for kids aged 8-16, offering them a chance to train with our Lions superstars. Additionally, our collaboration with Serpentine Galleries and Tower Hamlets Council has led to the creation of a vibrant basketball court, serving as a community hub with coaching sessions and tournaments for the first 6 weeks before being gifted to the community.
