Ladies Programme

Raising Queens of the Court

Raising Queens of the Court

The Victoria Falls Panthers Ladies Programme is more than a team — it’s a movement. We’re creating space for young women and girls to thrive in basketball, build confidence, and shatter stereotypes both on and off the court.

Our programme allows female athletes to train, compete, and lead with pride. Whether it’s their first bounce or they’re gunning for national selection, we support every player with quality coaching, mentorship, and exposure.

Our Mission

To create a safe, supportive, and competitive environment where girls and women can develop as athletes, leaders, and role models in their communities.

Scholarships & Opportunities:

Access to scholarships, educational support, and talent pipelines for provincial and national selection.

Health & Wellness Focus:

Our approach includes sessions on mental health, fitness, menstrual wellness in sport, and leadership.

Why It Matters

This isn’t just about basketball. It’s about self-worth, voice, community, and power.

In Zimbabwe, girls’ participation in sport often ends too early. We’re changing that story. The Panthers Ladies Programme is designed to keep girls playing, learning, leading — and dreaming big. From primary school beginners to emerging senior players, we celebrate every stage of the journey.

Training & Development:

Regular sessions led by experienced coaches who understand the unique needs of female athletes.

Competitive Play:

Participation in local leagues and tournaments, including inter-regional fixtures and Panthers-hosted events.

Mentorship & Empowerment:

Pairing players with female mentors and senior athletes to inspire growth beyond the game.

Join the Sisterhood

If you’re a player, parent, coach or sponsor who wants to support girls in sport, we want to hear from you. Let’s raise champions — together.
