MEET THE DIRECTOR
JAMES BATEMON
I am a professional basketball player with five years of experience playing overseas in Latvia, France, Greece, Germany, and Israel. Recently, I signed a contract to play in Australia's top league, the NBL. My journey began at camps like these, and I am passionate about giving back to the youth through similar opportunities.
​
In high school, I was an All-State player at the University of Milwaukee Riverside. I then earned a scholarship to attend North Dakota State College of Science (NDSCS) junior college, where I achieved All-American honors in my first two years. I later transferred to Loyola Marymount University, a Division I school, where I was an All-Conference player in both my junior and senior years.
​
Beyond my playing career, I have mentored and groomed younger players including my siblings to achieve similar success and I am dedicated to helping young athletes develop their skills and reach their full potential, just as I have done throughout my career.
