Aunty Mildred - The heartbeat of basketball in Vanuatu 🏀🇻🇺
I met Mildred less than a week ago, and it already feels like we’ve known each other for a lifetime. In that time I’ve learnt so much about her and basketball in Vanuatu, basketball there is a an outside concrete court on a piece of land and a pathway system two worlds apart from what we experience in Australia. In her own words “If I’m not running basketball on the island, then basketball doesn’t happen”
Meeting people like Aunty Mildred is why I love what I do and being able to tell a part of their story 🤍
It’s a privilege to be able to have a holistic view on basketball in different parts of the world and something that makes me so much richer in life.
