Welcome to the Community Basketball Initiative
What is the CBI?
The CBI was created in April 2014 as a community group to develop basketball playing, coaching and officiating opportunities in Brighton. We work mainly in recognised ares of deprivation where there is a clear demand. We work in partnership with dozens of local groups to maximise participation. In early 2020 we became a Community Interest Company.
​
