RAISE THE GAME in Paris

10th Arrondissement, Paris

Paris, and its suburbs, is where basketball has been brought back to its roots. Each neighborhood competes to hold the court, pushing the game forward with every crossover, dunk and hope. It is competition at its best.

The 10th arrondissement is a popular district and one of the most cosmopolitan. Basketball found its roots thanks to iconic playgrounds such as Jemmapes, Stalingrad or even Grange aux Belles. It is the heartbeat of Paris Basketball.

One of the hubs within the 10th is the Balti Zone court in Jemmapes. This court was the first in our journey to RAISE THE GAME in the French community and was refurbished back in 2020. In partnership with NBA we continue to support the Sons of Jemmapes community who play on the court and also the all female club, Paris Basket 18 who are based in the 10th.
