Court #54 opened in Jimara, The Gambia in November 2026 as part of Dribble for Peace, the phase of our Built Within initiative that brings community courts to the Sahel. Located in the Upper River Region and built in partnership with Jaha Dukureh, this court marks Giants of Africa’s first visit to The Gambia and the 23rd country reached as an organization.
Built by local hands, with young people from the district trained and employed during construction, the court draws its design from the baobab tree, a traditional symbol of strength, wisdom and togetherness. Beyond basketball, it is envisioned as a hub for local women and girls, hosting coaching, clinics and youth programming.
