Africa’s leading Sports Merchandise Brand, AFA Sports have unveiled new team jersey for the African Champions, D’Tigress ahead of the FIBA Women’s Afrobasket 2019 in Dakar, Senegal.

At the unveiling ceremony on Sunday in Lagos, D’Tigress captain Adaora Elonu and Evelyn Akhator displayed the new home and away jersey for the team while guests were allowed to hang out with their favourite players and shop from the AFA Sports Store.
