Solomon Islands Basketball Federation

Glori Hong, President acting of Solomon Island Basketball Federation, is in the United States to participate in the International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) on “Sports Management and Youth Leadership,” with fellow experts from the East Asia Pacific region. They will explore how the United States integrates sports into educational systems, promotes athletes’ health and safety, and builds economically sound programs that promote the commercial, academic, and social benefits of youth sports.

We wish Gloria a productive experience in the United States and look forward to hearing about her experiences and ideas when she returns to Honiara!

For the Kids. 🥇

🏀 Hoops For Equality has launched at Chung Wah School!

We’re using basketball to drive gender equality, inclusion, celebrate diversity, and create positive change on and off the court.

Big thanks to Chung Wah School for the partnership in building a more united community through sport.

Safe Sport Day is about creating an environment where our athletes feel supported, heard, and protected.

From grassroots to national teams, safety is the foundation that allows talent to shine.

As our International Safe Sport Day campaign continues, we're highlighting the importance of creating sporting environments where every child feels safe, included and supported.
