Contacting overseas professional basketball teams can be difficult - especially if you lack connections. But with some research and guidance any overseas basketball player - even those with no college experience - will be able to find overseas basketball coaches, teams and get a potential overseas tryout.
Germany’s basketball system is a great start for players interested in playing overseas basketball because there are so many divisions available.
I'll show you in today's video how to target and contact the right German basketball teams and coaches to set yourself up for success.

As in how to literally contact them or what should your strategy be when contacting them when you have no film?

@neurobliss8715 2 года назад

@ yup you nailed it as in how should someone strategize how to contact without any film , I haven’t been able to find leagues around me to get the film due to covid but I have been working with some legit d1 players to be ready for the next level also thanks for the response as well.

Help me out please . I played High school basketball in Germany. I lived there 3yrs & call it home. My freshmen yr we won the Dodea European championship. Trying to go back to Germany for college, join a team & earn my respect. Thanks for all the free game.

How old are you now? And where are you staying at?

@moneymiles8232 2 месяца назад

Im 22. I applied to schools in Cologne, Aachen, and Duisburg.

@@moneymiles8232 usually players go through the club system rather than the college system when it comes to Europe. How come you decided this route?

@moneymiles8232 2 месяца назад

I have education benefits that pay me for school. German college is €250 a semester at most. I picked schools in an area with lot’s of teams. Plus my best friend lives In Heerlen, NL and I have a female in Dusseldorf.

@ognjenstojkic6919 2 года назад

Nice vid Jose, i want to ask you what do i do if i am a 19year old basketball player and i dont have film, and i wanna develop somewhere in the lower leagues in Germany and maybe somehow attend collage there, what is the best way to do that?

@sportinternationalbasketball 2 года назад

Most likely you would have to relocate to this region entirely. Without film or experience it will be very difficult for a team to take you on. It sounds like this is something you have been considering doing (i.e. attending college there). This is a big commitment though so think it through. Another option would be to develop your skills, player profile and connections (network) through the semi-pro system. This option is under the assumption that you are American though.

@anotherelvis 11 месяцев назад

Interesting video. How many tiers/teams in the German basketball pyramid are professional? Can you get a work-visa to Germany without being on a pro team? Can you find a part time job as an American in Germany?

11 месяцев назад

1. There are 11 tiers in total. Usually the first 4-5 are considered professional. Even though there will be players who aren't paid within those conferences. It all depends on how you define professional, I guess. But the first 4-5 divisions will have imports and foreigners getting paid. 2. Yes - you can get a work visa without playing on a team. 3. Also very possible finding a job there as an American.

Do you know anything about basketball in Mexico and I got recent film. Do you think that would help me ?

2 года назад

I’m not sure why recent film would hurt? 🤔 Yes, Mexico is a big market in Latin America! Lots of leagues to choose from but they are competitive.

Yessir! They don’t like giving them out!

@reefmulkey982 2 года назад

When’s the appropriate time(example months), for attempting to try out for teams there? That matters.

2 года назад

Germany runs in the traditional European basketball schedule so roughly Sept - March. Prior to the season (June - August) would be a great time. The half way point (Xmas break: Dec - Feb) when many teams switch out imports is another. Playoffs/playoffs push is the third (March - April).

Many clubs in Berlin. Download the app and make a list. See where their home gyms are and go in person to tryout. Lower-level clubs will gladly take you on if you are good enough. Good luck!

@winacademytv4039 2 года назад

Come Subscribe. I got all the answers for Spain. I hoop here as well

2 года назад

What division are you playing in Spain? The basketball community is very small everywhere and word should travel. Spain is no different. Use your coaches and organization as connections. If that fails, go to Eurobasket and find your desired clubs. Make a list. Find where their home gyms are located. Go and tryout/speak with the coaches there. Good luck.

@winacademytv4039 2 года назад

@ I started here in the 8th. Now I'm in the 6th. But, teams are calling me from the 5th and 4th division.

@Im_Cao 2 года назад

Do the unpaid league provide housing, food, etc.?

2 года назад

That will really depend on the league and team as always. If you are trying out for a team and they don’t know who you are then I’d advise you to assume nothing will be covered. For that reason you’ll have to be able to sustain yourself to begin. But if you prove yourself then opportunities will open up.

What is the difference between landesliga Männer and landesliga Herren?

Год назад

I'm not really sure. What were you seeing? I'm assuming it's just two different men's divisions you were looking at.

@Harryfalcon1 Год назад

@ ok sounds good thanks. Yeah that’s what I assumed but I was just double checking.

@blackout2430 2 года назад

Please tell me they’re not making players get vaccinated. I can’t take that risk. Feel like I will never achieve my dreams now because of this thing

2 года назад

In Germany I don’t believe it is required. But they have something called 3G that you must prove in order to participate in sports. Either you are double vaxxed, have recovered from COVID or got tested for it. The 3 options represent the 3G.

@blackout2430 2 года назад

@ Well I recovered from it but how do I prove that? And when you flew there was it required? My trainer went there because he used to play in Germany and he said nothing was required when he went but that was a month ago

2 года назад

@@blackout2430 You prove by showing a positive PCR test result and then the associated date. Yes, I had to show my results!

@blackout2430 2 года назад

@ Thanks for the reply. How is Germany right now? Are you required to provide test results to go to the supermarket or anything like that?
