Over het programma

Challenge yourself as you work on delivering new and fun coaching sessions for the children as well as organising basketball games and building lifelong friendships through sports. Basketball is said to be Ghana's next up-and-coming sport event. There is an abundance of raw talent within the country and the Ghana Basketball Association has worked hard to implement an intricate training and development programme.  Basketball placement will give interested participants the opportunity to access some of Ghana's finest athletes and take part in their coaching and training. However, this is only one side of the game and you can choose how involved you want to be. A basketball placement will allow you to work with young and enthusiastic players on a more relaxed level where the emphasis is on fun and developing strong friendships. At this level, the placement is about building worthwhile relationships, rather than creating Ghana's next big star.

volunteer placement  can be done in the big cities of Ghana as well as in the Rural areas where volunteers will be living among the local families, gets to know their rich culture,food and make new friends .

Samba Basketball project is link to numerous number of local schools and league teams where there is a competitive, as well as a more relaxed, attitude towards the game. We also work closely with the Ghana Basketball Association and can place our basketball coaches in some of the top development clinics and training sessions for the junior national teams. Samba Africa can provide a placement for any enthusiastic volunteer, no matter what experience you have.


These are the main activities you can get involved with during your project:

  • Coach basketball to disadvantaged children at a basketball club
  • Research and plan new, creative coaching methods
  • Develop personal skills like leadership, team building, planning, and motivating others.
