Due to the coronavirus epidemic we will not be participating in any events in China and Brazil until further notice. We hope to get back in 2023.
Since 2012, NetScouts Basketball has participated in tournaments in China for both Men and Women each spring and summer. The tournaments are generally a round robin format in which we organize a USA All-Star team and play a Chinese team and teams from two other countries in three different Chinese cities. In this format all teams will play nine games. Almost all of the players on our teams have gone on to play professionally all over the world.
In 2019 we partnered with 3D Global Sports of Canada and helped organize women’s teams that played five games against the China National Women’s team over two trips.
For 2017 we have completed one women’s tour In May. We finished tied with China for the tour title with a record of 7-2. Besides China we played against Lithuania and Canada.
In 2016 we participated in four tours, two men’s trips and two women’s. The men’s teams had a combined 13-4 record while the women’s were 13-3. In addition to China the men’s teams played against Italy, Lithuania and Canada. The women’s teams played against Australia, Lithuania, New Zealand and Poland. Cities visited in 2016 included Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Chenzhou, Yueyang, Dazu, Yunyang, Foshan, Xunyi, Daishan, Zhoushan, Jiahe and Weng’an.
In 2015, we had four tours, two women’s and two men’s. The women’s teams played Denmark, Poland, Czech Republic and Canada, in addition to China and finished 12-3. The men’s teams went 11-4 in games against China, Slovenia, Denmark, Lithuania and Canada. Cities visited in 2015 were Wenshan, Chenzhou, Shenzhen, Jiahe, Huangshi, Ganzhou and Zao Zhuang.
We completed four tours in 2014, three were Men’s events. Our Women’s team went undefeated (9-0) against national teams of China, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark and Slovenia. Our last two Men’s tours had a combined 11-1 record.
In 2013 our first Women’s tour took place in May. We faced the national teams of Australia, Brazil and China in a nine-game, three-city tour in which we won the “Four Nations” title with a 7-2 record. Jaime Russell of Illinois State was named the MVP of the event.
Adrian Ritchie produced this documentary of the tour. If you’d like to see what the experience is like check it out! You can also check out the following photo albums on Facebook: June, 2013 Women’s Tour – June, 2012 Women’s Tour
The second 2013 Women’s tour took place in late June where we played national teams of China, Australia and Hungary. We finished that event undefeated with a 9-0 record. Alexis Gray-Lawson of California and Phoenix (WNBA) was named the MVP of the tour.
Here’s full game video vs. the Hungarian National team. Thanks to our Hungarian friends for getting it to us.
A Men’s tour also took place in June, 2013 as we faced China’s national team and World University Games teams from Canada and Latvia. The team went 3-6 losing three games in the final seconds, two to a tough Canadian squad.
In May, 2012 our USA Women’s All-Star team battled the National B” teams of China, Australia and New Zealand. We took home the gold medal with an 8-1 record with the only loss to China by 2 points. We defeated the China National “B” team by 10 points in the last game.
We returned to China in June, 2012 with both a Men’s and a Women’s team. The Men’s team played teams from China, Lithuania and Germany in the same 3-city, 9-game round robin format. The team went 9-0 on the trip including a thrilling two-point win over China in the finale.
The Women played in the Sino-American Pre-Olympic Challenge against the Chinese Olympic team. They lost the three games against Team China, the last by only five points. They then defeated the Chinese National “B” team in two of three games in a second city. All the games against Team China were televised throughout China to over one billion people, as well as on some USA cable networks, on CCTV-Channel 5, the ESPN of China.
All the tournaments is China are well-run and feature opening ceremonies with speakers and performers. They are held in arenas with a capacity of 5,000 to 10,000 which are mostly filled to capacity, especially for the games involving China.
