Buckets for Benj - Stotfold to Stateside
Donation protected
Hi everyone, my name is Benjamin Daniels, and I am a Basketball Coach currently working with North Herts Knights, the University of Hertfordshire, and Russell Hoops. Ever since the age of 13, I have had aspirations of becoming a top professional Basketball Coach, and after working within Basketball in the East of England for almost 10 years now, I am about to embark on my biggest challenge yet – a Master’s Degree and Coaching Experience in Ohio, USA – and I need your help please to hopefully make this dream a reality!
However, first, let me give you some background about myself.
Since the age of 15, I have helped run and grow the Youth of North Herts Knights after our Club Chairman sadly passed away, and I am extremely proud of how the youth of the club has developed and grown over the past 7 years. Along the way, I have managed to rack up 10 years of coaching experience, a First-Class Honours Degree in Sports Coaching, and am currently working towards my Level 3 Coaching Qualification. Alongside my work at NHK, I have been lucky enough to work at both County and Regional level, as well as at the University of Hertfordshire and with Russell Hoops.
While my ambitions to become a high-level coach are based on my passion for the game and desire to be the best I can be, they also stem from personal reasons that the game of basketball has played such an important part in my life so far and has given me so much. From this personal experience, I want other kids to know that Basketball as well as being a great sport, can also have a positive effect on their life. Along with climbing my career ladder with passion, drive, focus, and ambition to make it as a high-level coach I will always try and make a difference by giving back to grassroots basketball because at the end of the day, this is where it all begins. One of my goals is to use my passion for the game to help it grow, flourish and get the recognition it truly deserves.
Therefore, in order to get to the USA and for the chance to chase my dreams, I am inviting everyone to sign up and take part in my 24hour game. Don’t forget players can sign up to play in more than one slot so please see the game info and schedule for full details advertised on Instagram and Facebook @bucketsforbenj
In addition, anyone wanting to sponsor me to play the full 24hours or make a donation please do so here on my GoFundMe page.
Both myself and Mike are very much looking forward to the game and seeing as many of you there as possible.
Please know in advance that your support is extremely appreciated.
