West Bandung Regency with a fairly high population density has an impact on limited land for the community's needs for public space. This can affect the quality of life. One of the main aspects that can improve the quality of life is physical health. To achieve quality physical health, we can do regular exercise. Research shows that community participation from year to year is inversely proportional to the provision of ideal and adequate sports facilities in Indonesia. One area that does not yet have qualified sports facilities in West Bandung Regency. The pathetic condition is West Bandung Regency does not have any sports facility center yet and still uses Gor si Jalak Harupat in Bandung Regency as its center. This is caused by several factors, one of which is the construction of sports facilities that require very large costs. Thus, to form sports facilities properly, the government cannot do it alone. However, it is necessary to collaborate with the community and private sector. On the other hand, one of massive movements in sports activities in Indonesia is the Development Basketball League (DBL). DBL has a primary focus on the game of basketball. In 2008, DBL managed to become the first league in Indonesia that collaborate with the National Basketball Association (NBA) from the United States. Therefore, DBL can present the NBA's first official event for hundreds of basketball players from all over Indonesia. In addition, DBL has a program called DBL Academy, which is an academy that not only teaches basketball but also character and nutrition. This project aims to design a basketball training and development center that is not only a place for increasing youth sportsmanship, but also a sport facility with educational benefit and public spaces to foster community participation in basketball that is functional, interactive, and has a strong positive image.
