Belize Basketball Federation prepares for youth tournament

It didn’t make it on our Monday sports report, but the Belize Basketball Federation is preparing for the upcoming National under fifteen and seventeen tournaments. And to make sure the ballers from the deep south are included, the President, Paul Thompson and Head Coach of the national junior team, Mathew Smiling, headed to Punta Gorda over the weekend. The BBF met with players, coaches, referees and the members of the Sports Council to discuss forming a Toledo Basketball Association. Meanwhile, a Pro Tem Basketball Committee was formed with Henry Locario appointed as Chair. Christine Alvarez and Jerry Nicholas are the other members. Training will be provided for coaches, table officials and referees this coming weekend.

    In my opinion,KTV latino,Duets are not chosen by who has the most icredible talent (all participants have talent). It is chosen by who gives the phone company more money by votes.Look at real programs that really make the experience, talented judges do the judging!!!!!!!! I see the show and most of the times the talented are eleminated due to votes.Thanks
