Dear Coaches,
Phenom Sports is excited to share with you an incredible opportunity for your players to grow both on and off the court. D-ONE Sports + Brand DREAM™ is offering a unique chance for selected players to step onto the global stage, competing in international basketball games while immersing themselves in the rich culture of China.
Why This Matters
Basketball is more than just a game. It’s a powerful tool for personal growth, and this exchange trip will challenge your players in ways that go far beyond the court. They’ll experience:
- International Competition: Playing against teams in China will sharpen their skills, push them outside their comfort zones, and teach them how to adapt in new environments.
- Cultural Immersion: Beyond the competition, they’ll be exposed to the traditions and history of China, expanding their worldview and developing the kind of global awareness that sets true leaders apart.
- Personal Growth: Through this experience, your players will build resilience, leadership, and confidence—key traits that will serve them in basketball and in life.
- Education: This trip offers a unique opportunity for players to learn about different cultures and systems, fostering a deeper understanding of global history, language, and international relations—making them more informed and well-rounded individuals.
Who Should Apply?
This opportunity is open to competitive players aged 12-16 who are ready for the challenge of representing North Carolina on an international stage. To ensure we select players who will thrive in this environment, we ask that they be recommended by a trusted coach—someone like you.
