Project Description:	A high-level women's basketball team is needed to assist and work with newly developing women's basketball teams. This SportsPlus team will compete and also provide instruction for this country's Olympic team. Also, during the day the SportsPlus team will have opportunities to work throughout the community to provide clinical outreaches for the youth in the city. This project will assist current mission personnel as they build relationships with key leaders and students. We want to help them with their desire to educate, develop leadership and promote women's rights. This project will help address critical women's social issues that the country is currently facing. The ultimate goal, of course, is to share the Gospel with those our team develops relationships with throughout the course of the project. Highly skilled female athletes and coaches are needed for this project! As mentioned above, we will be working with a new women's basketball team and should be able to offer high levels of competition and coaching. The SportsPlus training camp will take place from July 1-3, 2008. Volunteers will train with other mission teams and will then depart from the Atlanta airport on July 3 to go on their mission. :: APPLY NOW ::
