Dubai, UAE – June 2026 — Ballers League is proud to announce the launch of one of the most exciting community basketball events in the UAE, bringing together sport, entertainment, and recognition for the hardworking overseas Filipino community.
Hosted by two Filipino-owned companies and one British-owned company, collectively employing over 200 Filipino professionals, Ballers League was created with a simple but powerful mission: to promote work-life balance, reward dedication, and create meaningful opportunities beyond the workplace.
More than just a basketball tournament, Ballers League is designed as a full entertainment experience — giving players, supporters, and families an event they can truly be proud of.
Setting a new benchmark, Ballers League will become the first tournament of its kind to offer a massive AED 20,000 prize pool, creating an unmatched platform to showcase exceptional Filipino basketball talent while delivering a professional event atmosphere.
Beyond the action on the court, attendees can expect:
• Elite basketball competition featuring top Filipino talent
• Live DJ performances and entertainment throughout the event
• Team reveals, media exposure, and community engagement
• Live streaming coverage across Facebook and YouTube for supporters worldwide
Ballers League also aims to create a bigger impact beyond sport through collaborations with both local UAE businesses and Filipino companies, helping strengthen support networks and opportunities for overseas workers.
“This league is about more than winning games. It’s about recognising hard work, building community, creating memories, and giving people something to look forward to outside of work.”
Whether attending in person or tuning in online, Ballers League promises an atmosphere, energy, and experience not to be missed.
