I AM A GIRL LEADERSHIP SCHOLARSHIPS

The Hills Basketball Association would like to congratulate our 2020 I Am A Girl Leadership Scholarship recipients. Each of our scholarship holders has been listed, with quotes taken from their scholarship applications on how the scholarship will benefit them.

The I AM A GIRL Leadership Program provides an opportunity for females to develop leadership skills through courses & seminars, while receiving unique opportunities to develop their preferred facet of the game – playing, refereeing, coaching or officiating.

On Sunday the 23rd of August, the Hills Basketball Association will be launching our I Am A Girl week. Get ready for 8 days of I Am A Girl activities both in the HIVE and online. More details to come soon.
