Per a Spurs press release:
The National Basketball Association (NBA) and investment company Dart announced a multiyear expansion of their existing youth development collaboration in the Cayman Islands, which will tip off with the Camana Bay and Jr. NBA/Jr. WNBA Basketball Camp from Monday, July 22 – Friday, July 26 at the Camana Bay Arts and Recreation Centre. San Antonio Spurs guard and 2022 first round pick Blake Wesley will join the camp as a guest coach.
Next November, Dart will host a Jr. NBA/Jr. WNBA Week centered on fundamental skills and core values, including teamwork, unity, respect, commitment and confidence. The festivities include 3-on-3 tournaments, skills challenges, and clinics.
“Dart has been instrumental in helping us grow basketball in the Cayman Islands,” said NBA Deputy Commissioner and Chief Operating Officer Mark Tatum. “We embrace this shared goal of expanding our grassroots basketball development efforts and providing more opportunities for Cayman youth, fans and families to learn the values of the game and importance of a healthy, active lifestyle for years to come.”
During the 2023-24 season, the Jr. NBA/Jr. WNBA reached more than 19 million youth in six countries across Latin America and the Caribbean.
