As a youth leader recognized by the FIBA Foundation’s Asian Youth Leadership Program, Bayan is driving clinics, education initiatives, and empowerment campaigns for young girls. From Malaysia to Bahrain, she champions gender equality, healthy living, and sustainability while using basketball as a tool for positive change!
