Malgré l’appel du bikini et la chaleur écrasante du mois d’août gapençais, nous avons été plus d’une cinquantaine de fous de la balle orange à participer au tournoi Big Bangs du 8 août à Gap. De nombreux jeunes du Gap basket, accompagnés d’anciennes gloires locales, ont vu débarquer sur leurs terres des grenoblois descendus pour un weekend guinguette haut-alpin, avec des manosquins, des parisiens et même une guest star lilloise ! Ce cocktail explosif avait la main plus chaude que jamais avec des switch à faire frétiller les marmottes et …

Finishing the Division 1 League With A Bang/ Gregarious Deserved Champs
The Flameboys (run by the Big Bangs) won their last 5 games of the league to finish 11-3 and in sole possession of 4th place out of 15 teams.  It was a tough journey as they battled through injuries, exams, work, crappy refs, traffic, and humid weather to finish respectably.  They started off slowly going 1-2 in the 1st 3 games, won 5 in a row, lost a tough one, and then finished off strong with another 5 wins in …

After many years, the 1st division league started up again on April 19th.  Being played at the Dhanmondi gym in Dhaka, the league has 15 teams composed of players from all over the country as well as from abroad including Nepal, India, USA and Canada.

In March of this year, the Big Bangs organized an under-17 basketball league.
All the participants were kids who were no older than juniors in high school.  These kids were desperate for a tournament which wasn’t being dominated by seniors, college students and adults (sadly that includes the Big Bangs).  It was no fun for them to register in a tournament just to lose every game by 50 points or more.  These kids wanted fair and even competition and the Big Bangs gave it to them.
8 teams participated in a season, …

On Saturday 1st May, the Big Bang Ballers – Australia held a charity basketball tournament at Canberra Boys Grammar School.
