TOURNAMENT OF NATIONS

The Tournament of Nations (TON) celebrates the rich cultural interconnectedness of our regions while raising funds for our “UABL Kids” DEI Youth initiative. As the premier celebration of Pan-Africanism, TON fosters community spirit through musical performances, local vendors, traditional dancers, and wellness initiatives. The centerpiece of the event is a single-elimination basketball tournament featuring teams from various countries—our very own World Cup of Basketball.

We invite families to experience the finest in Diaspora cuisine and entertainment, all while supporting a worthy cause as nations come together in friendly competition.

The United African Basketball League (UABL) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit rooted in Pan-Africanism, dedicated to uniting and uplifting our community through youth advocacy and wellness initiatives. Basketball is our tool for community assistance both on and off the court.

Our organization values both players and patrons, extending our service beyond basketball. Our initiatives include youth camps, financial literacy programs, health and wellness campaigns, networking events, and scholarship funds.
