2010-2013
New England Colonials Tours
Celebrating 32 Great Years!
We
are very proud of our Colonials' players, coaches,
and families for their outstanding commitment to
our international tours and guests during the spring,
summer, and fall of 2010-2011. We are especially
grateful to our 2010 Colonials' Rovers and Ambassadors
players and their families for staying with us after
the cancellation of the April 2010 tours due to
the volcano activity in Iceland.
Our
very special thanks to all our volunteer coaches
throughout New England for their great assistance
in helping to arrange our 2010-2011 Colonials'
tours. The final week of June saw our 2011 International
Colonials arrive from ten countries for a three-week
basketball tour of New England. This 31st anniversary
tour saw the International Colonials play and
visit in four New England states while traveling
nearly 1,500 miles in the process.
Our
sincere thanks to our donors, coaches, and host
families for the wonderful support and hospitality
they provide to these young players from around
the world. And to the host families in Ireland
who so graciously welcomed our Colonials' Rovers
team in April. The basketball was terrific and
the hospitality was exceptional. We are especially
grateful to Richard Finn and John Finn in Oranmore
for their assistance in organizing our Ireland
tour.
