Master P and Tiny Launch First Co-Ed Basketball League

In a history-making power move, Master P and Tiny have teamed up to launch the first co-ed basketball league named the Global Mixed Gender Basketball Professional League. They made the announcement last week at the Philips Arena in Atlanta.

The first game is set for Sept. 23, when the New Orleans Gators take on the Atlanta Heirs Las Vegas, Nevada. The league will consist of male and female players, coaches and managers who will all be paid equally.

The GMGB is also pledging to donate one scholarship to a high school male graduate and one to a high school female graduate for each community that gets involved in the league.

There are currently only three teams, with the third being the Washington Fusion. Hopefully more cities will join the league as it grows. The GMGB was founded by luxury real estate investor James Scott.
