- Sierra Leone-k1x_ Nation of Hoop: 2 Nations that don’t exist due to any ethnic or religious identity , but were rather formed on the mutual spirit of hope, determination and passion.
- Freetown Basketball is essentially about the passion and love for the game, far away from alterior motives.
Two Nations that don't exist due to any ethnic or religious identity, but were instead formed based on the the mutual spirit of hope, determination and passion.
Sierra Leone - a spot from where African slaves were sold all over the world, and to which they returned from all parts of the world after regaining their freedom- a cycle – a circle – Nation of Hoop: a melting pot of different African cultures from across the continent, blending with a variety of cultures from around the world: An extremely versatile and unique Nation was born.
Sierra Leone’s capital Freetown was founded in 1792 in the former ’Province of Freedom’ by freed slaves, which arrived from Canada. Many others were to follow from the West Indies, Europe, South America and after the abolition of slavery also from North America.
- Sierra Leone Basketball takes Basketball to where it originally stems from: back to the streets - back to the heart: k1x-truehearted, passionate, ballers owned.
- Most ballers or blingers that arose out of the hip-hop culture carry a piece of Sierra Leone either on their ears, necks or wrists. Same way they sport the ice, they’ll sport the colours blue, white and green. (representing hope, freedom, and natural prosperity)
- A true ballers 2 ballers project: let’s put Sierra Leone back on the map and give it the significance it deserves, while the project in turn puts K1X on the map and gives it the significance it truly deserves.
