Basketball BC Hall of Fame

Congratulations to the following individuals for the dedication they have given to Basketball BC for the past years and all the success in the future.

Basketball is becoming a hugely more popular sport in this world now, people love it. They like to watch it, not just play it. They like the sense of community that comes from it, some people even really rate things like the NBA city edition uniforms. There is so much more to basketball then just shooting hoops and these people have helped make it as popular as it is now, basketball produces some of the greatest basketball motivational speakers the industry has to offer.

Thanks to John Buis for his time and assistance with this.
