Traill Team in Thailand Open – 1st Sept –
7th September
Traill International School is involved in setting up an adult basketball team called the Christian Eagles to play in the 3rd Thailand Open.
Traill has been able to acquire foreign players who have been flown in from the USA and UK to be the main force of the team, which will also include players from Thailand. The ABL rules require that a maximum of 5 foreign players can be part of the team, with only 2 foreign players allowed on court at the same time during a match.
The school is very excited to be able to provide players with current professional experience in both the NBA and BBL (British Basketball League). It will provide more exciting viewing for spectators and raise the standard of Thai basketball. All players have taken time off from their busy schedules to be in Thailand for 3 weeks and play in the Thailand Open from 1st September to 7th September.
VENUE: Thailand National Stadium (near MBK and Siam Square). Please be there and support our team!
Please take extra notice through the first week of September to get up-to-date reports on the Christian Eagles, on various TV Channels and the Thai newspapers.
