During the visit, it was also shared that registration for the KFC Fitness Zone 3 On 3 Streetball Challenge for Season 1 (24^th March – 31^st March 2013) is now opened, playing at Airport Mall and registration forms are available at all Fitness Zone’s outlets and the following KFC outlets: KFC Gadong Central, KFC Airport Mall, KFC The Mall and KFC Seria. Participating teams will all receive limited edition jerseys which must be worn at all time during the tournament.
 
Although the closing date for registration is 10^th March 2013, the organizers hope that teams can register earlier than that so that in case there are more teams than expected joining the tournament, there will still be ample time to make extra jerseys to avoid disappointment. Competing teams will find this year’s tournament more value for money as beside being limited edition, the official KFC Fitness Zone 3 On 3 Streetball Challenge jerseys are also both dry fit and reversible.

Also joining the visit to Sekolah Menengah Yayasan Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah School yesterday is International Artiste, Wu Chun who just flown back to Brunei the night before. Wu Chun has just came back from Houston, USA where he went to watch the NBA All Star basketball game along with a group of Taiwan Artiste such as Blackie, Wilbur Pan and S.H.E.’s Selina to name a few. “It was a good experience for me as we want to bring some of the things that I saw at the NBA into our own 3 On 3 basketball tournament” says Wu Chun. “Last year, when we organized the first basketball tournament inside a shopping mall, we have players telling us that they love our tournament because it’s different and they like the surreal feeling of playing in the NBA because it makes them feel like a real pro” added Jonathan.
