John Amaechi is offering to come and coach clubs in Britain for free – in an attempt to solve part of the knowledge deficit in the sport.The ex-NBA player has launched his Pay The Fee initiative where he will spend a day running a mini-camp with up to ten clubs in England, Scotland or Wales, working with both players and coaches.
Entrants should make a short video on why they want and deserve a visit from the one-time England international and paste a link into the comments section of the YouTube clip below – by the closing date of August 10.
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.
