Jr. NBA heads to Dumaguete this weekend

Jr. NBA heads to Visayas
The Jr. NBA Philippines programs is set to make their lone Visayan stop this coming weekend.

The City of Dumaguete is hosting the third Regional Selection Camp on March 30-31, which is open for boys and girls between the age of 10-14, specifically at the St. Louis School of Don Bosco.

Overseeing the RSC are Jr. NBA coaches like Rob Newson and Jeffrey Cariaso. They will not only teach basketball fundamentals but also impart the core program values of Sportsmanship, Teamwork, a positive Attitude, and Respect to the participants.

Day 1 provides aspiring Jr. NBA All-Stars the chance to strut their stuff on certain skills stations that will test their capability in either dribbling, passing, shooting, or footwork. Be outstanding there, and one can get called back for Day 2 the next day, where they will be taught advanced basketball concepts, as well as be involved in team exercises and scrimmages. It is from that group that the coaches will make their pick as to who will participate in the National Training Camp in May at the Don Bosco Technical Institute.

It is from the NTC that as many as five boys and five girls will be selected as the Jr. NBA All-Stars. They will then get the chance at the Jr. NBA Asia-Pacific Selection Camp for slots at the first Asia-Pacific team that will participate in the Jr. NBA Global Championship in August at Orlando.

This year's edition of the Jr. NBA Philippines 2019 presented by Alaska is also sponsored by AXA, Gatorade, Globe, Panasonic, Rexona, and Vivo as official partners.  ABS-CBN S+A, Basketball TV and NBA Premium TV serve as the official broadcasters of Jr. NBA Philippines.
