THROWBACK TO 2018 — A CHAPTER WE WILL NEVER FORGET! Some memories never fade and 2018 will forever remain a special chapter in the history of Anambra Flames Basketball Team. From the heart of the South-East, Anambra Flames made history as the first basketball team from the zone to qualify for the Nigerian Premier Basketball League, after emerging champions of the Division 1 Basketball League. But the journey didn’t end there. The Flames fought their way into the 2018 Kwese Premier Basketball League Final 8, defeating Police Batons 80–77 in the Atlantic Conference Playoffs. 🏆 THE FINAL 8: Venue: Indoor Sports Hall, Sani Abacha Stadium, Kano. Atlantic Conference: 1. Kwara Falcons 2. Hoops & Read 3. Anambra Flames 4. Nigeria Customs Savannah Conference: 1. Gombe Bulls 2. Kano Pillars 3. Bauchi Nets 4. AHIP Giants And then came the big stage in Kano, the best teams in the country, and the Flames carrying the hopes and pride of the South-East. FINAL MATCH: Gombe Bulls 81–67 Kwara Falcons 3RD-PLACE MATCH: Kano Pillars 81–76 Hoops & Read The journey was more than just basketball. It was about belief, sacrifice, discipline, teamwork and proving that a team from the South-East could rise and compete on the biggest stage. Looking back today, the victories, the challenges, the long hours in the gym, the travelling, the pressure and the unforgettable moments all tell one story: To everyone who was part of that incredible Anambra Flames journey — players, coaches, officials, supporters, families and everyone who believed in us — thank you. ❤️ ANAMBRA FLAMES — 2018.
