Young Redback Heads to U.S.
After spending his formative hoops years living in basketball gymnasiums, young Redback Giordano Monteleone is headed to the United States later this month, in the next leg of his promising basketball journey.
As a member of the "U.S. College Exposure Tour" the lifetime Redback junior will participate alongside a goup of West Australian athletes in three high profile basketball tournaments. The players will get the opportunity to perform in front of College coaches from many different levels in the hopes of raising their basketball profile as they each aspire to win college scholarships.
Such a scholarship gives athletes the opportunity to continue their basketball pathway at the highest level while also completing a degree. It is a pathway that has been followed recently by other Redback's juniors, Geordie Murray, Ashley Stephens and Jarrad Jackson.
The "U.S. College Exposure Tour will be making the following stops:
July 11-15
Adidas Invitational
INDIANAPOLIS
July 16-17
Eddie Ford's Round Robin Shootout
LOUISVILLE
July 18-22
Double Pump's Best of the Summer Tournament
ANAHEIM
