Highlighting Team Spirit: YMCA Moramanga at the Inter-School 3×3 Basketball Tournament

Sport brings young people together, challenges their limits, and builds lasting values. That spirit came to life during the Inter-School 3×3 Basketball Tournament held in Moramanga, a vibrant event where youth competed not just for victory, but for growth, unity, and recognition.

On February 22, 2025, YMCA Moramanga took part in this initiative organized by the Direction régionale de la jeunesse et des sports Alaotra Mangoro, in collaboration with local partners.

The event brought together youth from various institutions for a dynamic day of competition. Representing YMCA Moramanga, 20 young participants showcased discipline, sportsmanship, and teamwork. The Y-Basket Club, one of YMCA Moramanga’s most active clubs, played a pivotal role, contributing intensity and spirit to the matches.

More than just a tournament, the event:

  • Promoted local sports engagement

  • Strengthened inter-club collaboration

  • Fostered local partnerships

  • Encouraged education and personal growth through participation and fair play

In recognition of its valuable contribution, YMCA Moramanga was awarded a Certificate of Honor a recognition of its ongoing commitment to youth empowerment through sport.

This initiative highlights the role of sport not only as physical activity, but as a powerful tool for building confidence, leadership, and unity among young people.
