SEA COWS BAY, Tortola, VI- Veteran basketball coach and organiser Mr Milton C. McLean continues to have the youth engaged in basketball even as many of the sport’s facilities across the Territory have been destroyed due to the hurricanes in September 2017, forcing the cancellation of various basketball and other sports tournaments.

With the Sea Cows Basketball Court in playable condition, Mr McLean has wasted no time in organising leagues for the upcoming basketball stars.

The latest is the Sea Cows Bay Basketball Club (SCBBC) Easter League, which saw action on Sunday February 25, 2018 in the 13-15 Division.

      Parents need to come out to support the youth men. Mr. Mac can't do it alone. He has shown it takes a village to raise a child so let's stop sleeping.
