In an exclusive interview with Citi Sports, Bulley emphasized his vision for the premier basketball league to foster widespread interest and participation in the sport.
The league has commenced with 10 teams competing in both the Men’s Division I and Women’s Division, while powerhouse teams like Tema Youth and Junior Reformers participate in the 20-team Men’s Division II.
