As part of the 73rd anniversary of the founding of the Haitian Basketball Federation (FHB), Henri Jean, its President, delivered a message that we invite to read and share:

Message from Henri Jean :

"On this historic day, we celebrate with pride the 73 years of the Haitian Basketball Federation. Since its founding in 1951, the FHB has played a crucial role in the development and promotion of basketball in Haiti. We salute the tireless efforts of all those who have contributed to its success over the decades.

Basketball has the unique power to transcend borders and bring communities together. In Haiti, he was a catalyst of passion, hope and resilience. We are witnessing the positive impact that this sport has on Haitian youth, inspiring them to strive for excellence on and off the field.

In these difficult times that the country is going through, as we mark this important anniversary, we reaffirm our commitment to Haitian basketball. We will continue to work to provide opportunities for growth, education and inclusion through basketball. Together, we will build an even brighter future for this beloved sport in Haiti.

Happy 73rd anniversaries to the Haitian Basketball Federation ! May this day be filled with memories and appreciation for the many contributions to our community."
