Video: CBA-Canarias Basketball Academy
Greg Tanner of Basketball 24/7 recently returned from his trip out to Canarias Basketball Academy. A lot has been said about the Canarias Basketball Academy or CBA, since it was launched in 2007 by experienced coach Rob Orellana and I know of many people (including myself) who have wondered what it’s actually like.
Greg has done an awesome job putting together this video that gives a much deeper insight into what goes on at CBA, not only the basketball side of it but also the accommodation, education options and Rob Orellana himself. If you have the cash, it seems like a great environment for young British ballers who are looking to improve their game and advance their basketball careers.
Check out the video above, and also what Greg himself had to say about his trip to Canarias Basketball Academy. Drop a comment below and let me know your thoughts on the alternative option to going Stateside.
Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
