Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Kenya’s team need to prepare properly if they are to make a mark in international 3×3 events, Kenya Basketball Federation (KBF) vice chairman Hilmi Ali has observed.<\/p>\n

Speaking after the Kenya women’s performance in the FIBA 3×3 Nations League Final 2022 in Constanta, Romania, Hilmi said the future is bright.<\/p>\n

He revealed that he had talks with coaches and federation officials during the show on how to move forward.<\/p>\n

“What we have learned out there is that preparations are key and that players must be Identified earlier,” he said.<\/p>\n

Kenya bowed out of the global show after going down 22-5 to Lithuania and 17-6 to Japan in their Pool ‘D’ matches.<\/p>\n

The future, he maintained, is bright but the road map must be laid now as Kenya has athletism and only needs player ability.<\/p>\n

He said going forward, there is a need to have different players who will be committed to 3×3 games and be involved in the proposed league circuit.<\/p>\n

“All those successful teams have curriculum-based training and this is what we propose to have within a short time.<\/p>\n

“Centres will be identified in Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu and Nakuru and this should help spur the game.<\/p>\n

“So far, we are doing well in Africa but we will improve considerably if we separate 3×3 and 5×5 in the future.”<\/p>\n

He disclosed that next on the national team calendar is the Africa Nations Cup slated for Morocco later in the year.<\/p>\n
