Ahead of the second World Basketball Day this Saturday, help map out every court in the UK with basketballcourtsnear.me and be in with a chance of winning support to renovate your local court from the Hoopsfix Foundation – let’s get this done for Birmingham!
We are pleased to support our friends at Hoopsfix and the Hoopsfix Foundation who are mapping out every outdoor court in the UK ‘to create a powerful data resource to help local players put pressure on councils to properly invest in grassroots basketball facilities, influence government policy around outdoor sports facilities, while also crowdsourcing courts that are most in need of a renovation.’
BCNM empowers players and fans to discover and rate basketball courts across the UK, helping spotlight the unique qualities of each location and identify areas for improvement.
Developed by a team of volunteers at the Hoopsfix Foundation, a not-for-profit whose goal is to grow and raise the profile of basketball in the UK, BCNM will provide the first detailed mapping of the country’s outdoor basketball courts, giving an honest assessment of the state of play.
Not only that, but Hoopsfix has committed to helping support one lucky user to renovate their local basketball court. With all court submissions and edits being tracked in a public leaderboard, the leading submitter by January 1st 2025 will be provided tailored support to transform their local court (terms & conditions apply).
