Athlete Comments & Reviews
“The community is amazing!”
“All the years that we played, we met so many great people.”
“We love to visit new places!”
“Our players love playing basketball, but they also love travel so this is an opportunity to marry those things together.”
“Inspiration everywhere to just get up and do it!”
“You watch the Olympics and people are in awe of performance. You watch an event like this, you know the 40, 50, 60 year old age group, hopefully it inspires people to get out of the arm chair and say: ‘Actually, I could do that!”
