It brings together corporate sponsors, university leadership, and community stakeholders in a unified effort to grow the sport and develop young people. With UB Relics serving as a central force in FBF’s expansion, this collaboration is set to attract greater investment, unlock new talent, and elevate Botswana’s basketball scene.
