Opening Basketball courts
Over the past five years, we have had the privilege of opening almost every basketball court in the Netherlands. For example, we opened the Dreamcourts, the multi-purpose courts at Royal Campen, and the 3x3 courts at Nijha. Moreover, we collaborated with various municipalities to achieve this. As a result, every opening proceeded in a wonderful, interactive, and unique manner. Additionally, this makes everyone feel like a part of the court and the neighborhood.
