Black Prince Trust raises money for women's basketball program with a 12-hour shootathon

12 hours. One court. One incredible basketball community! What started as a shooting challenge turned into something much bigger. On Friday, we saw over 70 people come together at Black Prince Trust, representing different ages, backgrounds and abilities, all united by one cause: creating more opportunities for women and girls in basketball. The three-minute free throw challenge brought some serious competition, but we had one clear winner, sinking an incredible 30 free throws in just 3 minutes! Nobody came close! But the biggest result was what we achieved together £1,533.75 RAISED! Every donation, every shot and every person who turned up helped us get closer to bringing back our Women's 3x3 Basketball League in 2027 and continuing to develop our Female Basketball Programme. A massive THANK YOU to our 45 online donors, everyone who took part, our volunteers, supporters and the wider basketball family who made this possible. Sometimes it's easy to underestimate what a community can achieve when everyone gets behind the same goal. Friday was a reminder of exactly why we do what we do. This is bigger than basketball. This is community. One shot at a time. One player at a time. One community at a time.
