During the first day of training course there are 20 people who were interested in coaching.  They came to gain knowledge on how they gonna use that moment as it was their first time trained as the coach.

As we Kiribati future coaches how this job gonna work?.. We thank Ryan Burns spending his time in Kiribati teaching and working hard in conducting coaching course with our people as we believe that Kiribati has few coaches that needed to increase the number of coaches.  However,  we also have the abilities to work with coaching according to the rules as we are given.  Therefore, these people expected to be our trusted coaches in the future endeover.  We all know that Kiribati is one of the small country in the pacific region and do believe that they'll capable to perform and to develop but in the other hand in term of funding or supporters we must push harder and work as a team,

WE thank FIBA oceania in terms of supporting and assisting our country to be one of their heart.
