Suwanee, GA - Professional Sports Connection

By
Real Estate Agent with Solid Source Realty of GA - Suwanee

Suwanee has a tremendous connection to professional sports, which many residents and neighbors may not know about. The Suwanee Sports Academy has a well-respected staff of former professional and college athletes and coaches from several different sports, including ties to the NBA, WNBA, MLB, and even European Professional Soccer. The facility and commitment excellence in training young athletes continues to attract the attention of their former professional friends and colleagues in basketball, soccer and volleyball.

On June 27-29, Suwanee Sports Academy will host the NBA Development League Pre-Draft Camp for aspiring basketball stars. The camp participants must be 18 years of age. There will be 200 participants hoping to catch the attention of the many NBA D-League scouts and coaches in attendance, as well as NBA scouts and league management. At the end of the camp, a few lucky participants will join the player pool for the November league draft.

The D-League draft is held in Orlando where players put through a variety of drills and are placed on a team for at least two games to show their skills. For more information see Sam Amico’s article in Pro Basketball News.
