It can be through his hard work he had done, or a simple joke that he would tell you to bring you up whenever you feel down. Basketball was one of his passion, he would play every friday night at Sécheron (Geneva) with his filipino friends. Unfortunately, Nelson died in 2003 of a blood cancer. In memory of Nelson Landicho and to honor his life, his nephew and his son decided in 2010 to create The Nelson BBall Challenge with the support of their family. The Nelson BBall Challenge is a Family event, because it is organized with the help of Nelson's sons, nieces, nephews and friends. This Family event is our way to thank Nelson for his contribution in our lives. The Nelson BBall Challenge is a basketball tournament that takes place every single year.
