The Kaugere Rabia Amateur Basketball Association is a new basketball association, formed early this year.

The association was registered for the first time with Basketball Federation of Papua New Guinea, early this year.

The Association President said with the Kaugere settlement renowned for its lawlessness, the association aims to host games to keep youths away from trouble.

She said, before the association was registered, they hosted school holiday games, to keep students safe in the community during the holiday.
