BASKETBALL clubs in Linden will today (Saturday) meet at the Retrieve Hard Court from 17:00 hours to plan the Linden Amateur Basketball Association (LABA) elections.

The meeting will involve the five clubs Victory Valley Royals, Kings, Retrieve Raiders, Block 22 Flames and Amelia’s Ward Jets.

There have been concerns about the absence of competitive club basketball over the past year, which prompted the clubs to seek redress and implement measures to see club basketball played once more in the town of Linden.

Once a new body is elected as planned, there are hopes that club basketball, particularly among the various age groups, will be played and the staging of clinics for a new breed of referees and table officials to help promote the game.

The LABA election is set for tomorrow (Sunday) at the same venue from 15:00 hours.
