Last summer they started Lightning Tournaments 3×3 that will continue in the coming months and will be announced in due time so that the greatest number of boys and girls can attend, in order to achieve continuity of basketball both inside and outside the clubs.
«We plan to reach 24 beaches before the end of the year and, if we continue as we have been, we will surely achieve it. There are different types and sizes depending on where they are located. Some are directly 3X3 basketball and in which there is more surrounding space, we build for 5 vs 5, with anti-bandal hoops, LED lighting and a cement floor”, Arroyo concluded.
The Municipality is clear that Bahia is a city of basketball and its sights are set on highlighting the mother sport of the city, not only in the traditional clubs of the national capital of basketball, but also in public spaces, to add not only to the federated, but to anyone who is interested in practicing sports in the open air.
