The MBA President’s council is inviting the Maltese public for a great afternoon of basketball in aid of the Malta Community Chest Fund.

These include Joe Galea, John Tabone, Paul Sultana, Ivan Attard, Albert Spiteri, Nathan Farrugia, Kevin Decesare, Ivan Micallef, Ivan Grech, Mario Tabone, Lorry Agius, Dalibor Miatovic, Salvu Vella, Ray Muscat and more.

8.15pm – All Star Game – national team against foreigners who play in the local competitions. During this game a Slam Dunk competition will be organised and the fun is guaranteed.

There will be professional Hip-Hop dancers performing during the event and also, there will be competitions for the spectators with prizes to be won. These include 2 VIP tickets for a Virtus Roma game including flights (but excluding taxes) and a €300 voucher from Vascas for the ‘half court’ shooting competition

The entrance fee for all the above will be just €5 and children under 10 pay €2 only.
