Maldives Basketball Association and NBN23 join forces to drive the digital transformation of basketball in the Maldives
The Maldives Basketball Association takes a step forward and signs their partnership with NBN23 to digitize all its competitions. The partnership will begin with four of its competitions, where fans will be able to experience the game with SWISH.
The company that has revolutionized the world of basketball and its statistics, NBN23, will provide Maldivian basketball fans with a unique and global experience.
This advanced and important project is part of the MBA‘s ongoing modernization efforts.
Over the past weekend, the digitization process of the U17 and U19 competitions, including the Jr Championship, was initiated. In the near future, the Maldives Basketball Association (MBA) plans to fully digitize all its competitions, including the 3×3, thereby creating a massive basketball community of up to 2,500 players.
"The Maldives Basketball Association is dedicated to growing the sport and making it more accessible to everyone. This partnership with NBN23 will allow us to bring our competitions to life, making it easier for fans to keep track of the games and stay informed of the most recent results."
Ahmed Adam, President of the MBA.
In that way, every basketball fan will be able to directly follow every basketball game conducted in Maldives through tablets and smartphones. In addition, paper and waste will be outdated, as the scorekeeper’s digital scoresheet InGame, and will replace the traditional game forms making the data collected accessible to fans, reviewing results and the game moves through the SWISH – Al Hoops, All Stats App.
What will fans find in SWISH – All Hoops, Al Stats?
SWISH is the app that consolidates the data collected at all the basketball games in Maldivas. Enabling full range of capabilities to our fans starting with filtering by the competition, teams, players, and games the fan wishes to follow through live results updates and continue to a play-by-play or the comparison of the box score and the statistics, so that the user can analyze in detail what interests him the most.
Fans, family members and friends, will be able to follow closely the players statistics, enabling comparisons, follow-ups, etc. The SWISH app will also serve the coaches as a tool for scouting, following the opponents, and through it the players will be able to know the strengths and weaknesses of the teams and players they are up against.
"We are so happy to cooperate with Maldives Basketball Association. Maldives is a country with a great passion for basketball like our society. We are overly excited that Maldivian basketball fans will be able to enjoy the best experience in this sport”
