The Basketball Association of Maldives is also on the move. This is an association that have evolved more stably than most other associations. Basketball is in terms of player population behind the more popular Volleyball. However in terms of management, the players and appointed office bearers have stuck it out better than most other sports. The result is a more cohesive and organised group.
The association is working up to its election but not necessarily rushing to beat the end June deadline imposed by the Sports Ministry. It may be news for some to realise that Basketball is now played in both the North and South of the country, though not as broadbased as Football and Volleyball. The Association have been at odds with the Home Ministry with their proposal to create decentralised associations of the small pockets of this sport in rural Maldives.
Basketball is therefore, now, more interested in getting their national body constituted first, leaving to sort out the question of their players in rural Maldives later. The association hopes to get their constitution ratified towards the end of June and get their elections sorted out by August, well before Ramazan.
