SPORT FOR LIVES INITIATIVE

As part of our SAISA Basketball weekend, we will be partnering with Sports 4 Lives to raise funds for Westlake Primary School’s PE resources. Throughout the tournament, players will have the opportunity to make a real impact through this challenge. Families, friends, and supporters can pledge a donation amount per 3-pointer scored by their team, or make a once-off contribution. All funds raised will go directly toward much-needed equipment and coaches for Westlake Primary’s PE programme. This initiative allows our athletes to use their sporting efforts not only for competition, but also for meaningful community upliftment.
