Jaguars All Girls Basketball Tournament

The Jaguar Basketball Team is an all-girls basketball team consisting of approximately 40 girls.

The team is divided into two groups, the Under 19 years old and the advance level, which

includes above 19 years old. The Jaguars began in 2001 by Jamela Eudora Antone, who is also

the coach of both groups. Coach Jamela, a Native American woman, is heavily passionate about

sports in general and believes that Learning is a daily process and effort. She has always been a

competitive person, but over the years, she has learned from her team; competition is not

everything, she should enjoy life and every single person is different with different skills.

“Basketball and any other sport should always be about team work and having Fun!” Couch

Jamela said.

The Basketball Tournament, under the name “Your Body, Your Limits” Seeks to not only allow

girls to compete against one another, but to bring various groups and backgrounds together to

learn from one another and challenge themselves to be a better player and achieve more than

they thought they would achieve. “Your Body, Your Limits” will take place at Dar Al-Hanan

School of Jeddah on two consecutive weekends, starting on April 16-17 with the first group

“U19” and ending on the following weekend April 23-24 “Advanced.” There will be several

teams participating including Albir, Jeddah United, Green Team, Airforce, The American

International School and many more. The tournament will be sponsored by several companies

and is welcoming businesses to join the girls with different activities and delicious healthy food

to continue to motivate the importance of sports.
