Kent Tigers Basketball Club

kent tigers basketball club

Dartford

The Kent Tigers Basketball Club was founded in 2021 by Sten Mayunga. The club began its journey in Division 3 of the local league, quickly establishing itself as a formidable force in the region. The inception of the club was driven by a desire to create a community-focused and elite basketball club within the Kent region. In 2022, the club expanded its program with the launch of its juniors program. This program offers structured basketball training and competitive opportunities for boys and girls from under-12 to under-18 levels. The same year, Kent Tigers entered into a significant partnership with the Universities at Medway. This collaboration aimed at taking control over the basketball program at the Medway University campus, enhancing opportunities for university students to engage in high-level basketball. In its inaugural season, the Men’s senior team showcased exceptional performance by going unbeaten in the League and clinching both the Medway Basketball Association D3 title and the Nobby Crouch Plate with a decisive 93-41 win over Iroquois. Kent Tigers is committed to providing a complete player pathway, a vision championed by General Manager Sten Mayunga. The club operates in Dartford and other areas within Kent, catering to various abilities and genders. In addition, Kent Tigers has formed a partnership with Little Hoopers [https://littlehoopers.org.uk/], a child-friendly basketball program known for its innovative approach to introducing basketball to young children. Little Hoopers’ programs, designed for children as young as three years old, focuses on creating a safe, fun, and educational environment for young children. This partnership enriches the club’s structure, extending its pathway to include foundational basketball experiences for toddlers and preschoolers, fostering early engagement with the sport. As a community-driven club, Kent Tigers has emphasised creating opportunities for local engagement and sports development. Their partnership with the Universities at Medway and Little Hoopers is a testament to their commitment to fostering basketball at the grassroots and university levels, ensuring a sustainable and inclusive growth of the sport in the region. This approach led them to win the Basketball England South East community club of the year in 2022.
