Endeavour Ipswich Basketball is holding the third annual Makenna' Williams Memorial Game on 28th August at Copleston Sports Centre, Ipswich and we would love to see as many people there as possible. The entry fee of £5 per person will also be added to this fundraising effort.

As a family we want to continue to raise much needed funds for the club that took such great care of Makenna', the club that became her family. The annual Makenna' Williams Memorial Game is the perfect way for us to do this.

Makenna' sadly passed away on 29th June 2022. She was kind, generous, empathetic, funny and was an absolute delight to be around and had a lasting impact on everyone who met her. She had a tremendous passion for basketball. Since the age of 11 Makenna' belonged to the Ipswich Basketball family who not only enabled her to play but also provided support, and a nurturing environment, within which she thrived both as a player and a young person.

The support that we - Makenna's family - continue to receive from all members of the Endeavour Ipswich Basketball Club has been phenomenal. We are, and will always be, so grateful for the Club and we want to continue to show our support for it too as we remain very involved in the club and will always be IBC family.

Last year over £5000 was raised which enabled Endeavour Ipswich Basketball Club to provide invaluable mental health support and workshops for coaches, parents and players as well as supporting young players who have needed financial assistance to be able to continue playing basketball. This year we are determined to raise more and for that money to do more!

There is no doubt that this club changes lives so please donate and help us to help Endeavour Ipswich Basketball Club give the chance to other children to benefit from all the club has to offer as Makenna' did.

All donations will go directly to the club which is absolutely what Makenna' would want.

Thank you

The Williams family
