The key objectives of the tournament include providing a platform for young students to showcase their basketball skills and talents. Encouraging healthy competition, sportsmanship, and discipline. Building friendships and fostering unity among students from various parts of the district. The program aims to create opportunities for mutual learning, exchange of ideas, and skill development among students from various parts of the district.
