Banda Aceh, Indonesia

In February 2006, Asia Pacific Sports Management with support from United World College  of South East Asia conducted basketball clinics and organized a mini tournament for the youth of Banda Aceh, Indonesia. Devastation from the Tsunami was still evident in the surrounding buildings but at least for four days the youth who took part in the clinics and mini tournament had smiles on their faces. 

The only remaining basketball courts left in Banda Aceh came to life for four days as school teams from the surrounding area battled it out in scorching heat to become the Champions of the Tsunami Basketball Challenge. In the end our Champions came from SMA II in both the boys and the girls divisions.
