We are a voluntary lead sport from our board to all elements of our workforce.

I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
―Michael Jordan
“At EY, we believe strongly in investing in young people and in the communities where we live and work. Basketball creates opportunities for our younger generations to develop skills, build confidence and feel part of a team, both on and off the court.
We look forward to working with BNI throughout the season and supporting their continued success in the months ahead.“
