In a significant leap to help
catapult the crippled condition of Sports in our country, HTC-Sports in
collaboration with BIPA (Basketball Indian Players Association) launched the 1stBIPA Interschool Basketball league in the charming city of Dehradun on the 26th
of October 2017. The league will span across 16 cities, which will eventually
consummate in the end with a set of national winners in categories of both U-14
and U-17 for both boys and girls. The league could not have kicked-off at a
better destination other than the Doon Valley of Dehradun which nestles at the
foothills of the Himalayas banked on either side by the Ganges and the Yamuna
rivers.
There were a total of three matches
played on the first day; one in the U-14 bracket, the other two in the U-17
category.
