Hoops receives jersey donation from Edinburgh Kings

Hoops
Kevin Anderson, a Scottish player, who is a part of the Scottish team that came third place in the Eu championship and and is also the Captain of Edinburgh Kings, is presently volunteering in Ghana for a group call OSC Sports, came to Cape Coast for a sight seeing when he saw ballers at the Victoria’s park doing their thing. And as a natural baller as he, he decided to sweat it out with them. At the end of the practice he was very impress with the level of skills of the players and finally introduced himself as being in Ghana volunteering in teaching basketball in remote villages and that presently he was in the Eastern region in a village call Konko. A lot of the Hoops guys took liking of his free way he moved with them and in no time they all were like as if they had known each other for years. A clinic (see video) was organize by the team and Kevin was given the honor to show the kids basic fundamental skills which he gladly accepted and it was a success. It was also during this clinic that Kobby Acquah came in and met the Hoops team. Before leaving Cape Coast, he asked that a member of the team meet him in Koforidua, Eastern Region capital to receive the set of donated jerseys. Thanks Kevin and the Edinburgh Kings Basketball Team
