The CourtKingz, a United States-based streetball tour, will be bringing their flashy and entertaining brand of basketball to Cebu when they face off against Cebuano hoops legend, Dondon Hontiveros and the Jump10 Philippine Team in an exhibition game on August 3, 2019, at the University of San Jose-Recoletos gym in Basak.
Founded way back in 2004 by brothers, Victor and Simon Martinez, in Richmond, Virginia, CourtKingz has since developed into an inspirational tool to impact young people all over the world. Their electrifying hardcourt exploits — which include eye-popping dribbling skills and high-flying dunks — have been seen and featured on such prominent channels such as ESPN, Bleacher Report BallisLife and Slam Magazine.
The CourtKingz have already made stops in many different countries including China, Malaysia, Taiwan, Bahamas, Ecuador, Venezuela, Dominican Republic.
The CourtKingz Philippine stop is being organized by Apex Sports — a Cebu-based company that seeks to provide the Filipino athlete the right platform to showcase their skills.
“This is a great opportunity for the Cebuanos to watch the country’s best players play against America’s finest basketball players,” said executive producer, Pat Maluya, of Apex Sports.
The CourtKingz have already arrived in Cebu last July 25 and will be conducting basketball clinics, motivational talks and local exhibition games all around the island as part of their Summer Tour 2019. They will also be dropping by local basketball courts as part of their “Crash the Court” campaign.
The activities are aimed at motivating the youth to participate in sports that would lead to better engagement with future local government unit programs.
The CourtKingz will be in Talisay City on July 26 and 27, before making their way to the Cebu Fourth District on July 28 to 31. Then, they head over to Cebu City on August 1 to 6.
Ticket prices for the exhibition game on August 3 are set at P500 for courtside, P350 for the lower box and P200 for the upper box.
Ticket outlets are at Raphael’s Sports Cafe SM Seaside, Rad Chameleon at Imus St., or you may call 254-5642; 4150956 and 09951503639 and look for Ching.
