August 2 - 9, 2021

Cost - $3999

Jeremy Vandenboer is coaching America's Team traveling to the Dominican Republic. Jeremy is currently the head coach at Mount Hood Community College. He has traveled all over the world...Ireland, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Micronesia, Guam, Marshall Islands, Mexico, Belize and Guatemala!

We want you on our Dominican Republic Basketball team! You are invited because you are part of Coach Vandenboer's recruiting database at Mt Hood. Every player we invite for this team is part of his recruiting database. We look for good athletes who can play multiple positions and mix and match lineups. We only carry 10 players on our teams to make sure all players get a lot of playing time...so we need athletes that can play all over the court!

What is America's Team? America's Team shows athletes the world through sports. We introduce our players to a foreign country, its people and culture...and we play basketball at the same time! It's the coolest thing in the world!!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Will We Practice?

We won't practice. We are building this team with kids all across the state. The sheer size of the state and everyone's busy travel schedules make it impossible to get all 10 players together for practice.

How is the competition level?

In a word...Good! The teams we face overseas are local club teams that play together year after year. All our players project out to be small college players...D2, D3, NAIA type level players. Occasionally, we get a player that goes onto play D1, but our typical player is one that goes on to play small college ball.

Can Parents/Family Members Travel?

Parents and family members are more than welcome to travel. We average 6 parents that go with each team, so I anticipate a handful of parents joining this team too. The cost for a family member is the same as a player. This guarantees you the same flights, hotels, meals, tours, tour bus, tour manager, etc...you get everything the players get, you just don't get to play. Please note: Family members over 24 will be charged the $100 Adult Surcharge.

What is the Adult Surcharge?

When we negotiate with our vendors for all the tours and excursions we take the teams on, the vendors give us the youth prices. When we show up with adults, the vendors charge us the full fare for all the tours and excursions.

When is my registration and deposit due?

Your deadline to register and pay your deposit is 30 days from when you received your invitation. Your deposit is due at the time of registration. We can't hold your spot without the deposit.

How much is the deposit?

The deposit to secure your spot on the team is $495. The deposit is not an additional charge. The deposit is part of the total tour cost.
