Both Mohammed Abdulshkoor Islam, the President of Saudi Arabia Basketball Federation, and Mr Ismail Al Gergawi, the president of the United Arab Emirates Basketball Association, were in attendance at the event to lend their support and were thrilled with the win.
The Transform Awards programme is held annually in Europe, the Asia-Pacific and MENA regions. It is a global celebration of brand development, reputation management and rebranding.
The Saudi Basketball League has been created to engage and inspire the next generation of Saudi sporting heroes by giving them a world-class basketball league. Turquoise Branding brought the SBL to life with an eye-catching and contemporary brand identity that crackles with the same energy that the players produce on the court.
