Alaska Jr NBA/WNBA Finalist

After months of preparation, finally my long wait is over. To be able to find out who would be the able to join the alumni of Jr. NBA/Jr.WNBA was the climax of my whole coverage of the 2015 national search for the best young basketball players.  It was a nationwide search, to be able to gather all the best around the nation who are not just good players but team player as well is a something that the search should be proud of.

To be able to join the long list of JrNBA/JrWNBA presented by Alaska is not just an overnight dream. There are so many preparation for this, and I saw how the children and their parents did what think should be the steps to do it and finally get that goal.

Physical and emotional preparation and the spirit to not give up where the thing that I notice that each child possess as they auditioned for this training

There were actually 50 boys and 24 girls who made it to the 2015 National Training camp which was held last Apr. 24-25 at the PICC Forum. The big date was April 26, where 10 boys and 5 girls were ultimately named Jr.NBA/JrWNBA Philippine all-stars.

You might say that you would be sad for the rest of players who would not be picked but honestly, the training that they had from the time they auditioned in their respective areas was actually a prize that you can be proud of.  The training that was provided for them would also be their preparation for their future in the basketball sports.
