Kreyol Sports International seeks to cultivate a love of sport while ensuring a sense of social responsibility from the basketball court to the wider environment and community. From grassroots basketball programs to resources and training for coaches, the project empowers young and old to fulfill their potential.

The NGO is committed to the development of eco-friendly practices, establishing and helping maintain facilities that have a positive impact on their immediate environment. This work is made possible by collaboration with partner agencies such as 'da NEXT LEVEL sports'.

Kreyol's basketball training camps offer intensive coaching sessions for all age groups, giving young people an opportunity to develop their skills in a safe and supportive environment. There are also consulting services for local amateur clubs and leagues which help grassroots teams improve and attract new members.

The project incorporates community and international events to bring people together and provide a space to share their love of sport and celebrate the diversity of the basketball community.

There is an elite program too which offers older children access to advanced training regimens, physical conditioning, and strategic gameplay coaching. These players get the opportunity to participate in high-level competitions against top-tier teams, giving young people the chance to showcase their skills on an international scale.

The elite programs also offer development opportunities beyond the basketball court. A spokesperson says, "Beyond athletic prowess, our program emphasizes personal development and education, helping players gain valuable life skills, maintain academic excellence, and prepare for future challenges."

Kreyol Sports International is headed by Marvin Jno-Baptiste - a former semi-professional basketball player with experience in sustainable development through his work in the Francophonie of the Americas.
