US import in Australia looking for a team
Hello,
My name is Justin Hamilton.
I was recruited as a U.S. Import to play with the Newcastle Hunters in the Waratah League. Unfortunately after only four games the Board decided to rebuild and develop their youth. I understand this happens in almost all teams at some stage in any sporting competition. I have no hard feelings whatsoever and leave on great terms and am happy to provide the contact details of the Newscatsle President to confirm.
I have only been in Australia for only a short period and immediately fell in love with your country, I don't think you understand how good you have it!... the Australian attitude and way of life is something I didn't believe was possible...
My hometown is Baltimore, Maryland.
Hard work and determination are two principles that have always defined my life. I have continuously strived and worked determinately and diligently in order to achieve my goals: to develop into the best person and player that I can be through basketball. I believe that I can further develop myself and your program through the opportunity to join your club, and I am willing to make whatever sacrifices necessary in order to make this possibility a reality.
I am a 182cm, 82 kg combination guard with scoring capability, the ability to create opportunities for others, and the ability to play a well-rounded defense. I am a leader both on and off the court, and strive to motivate not only myself, but also my teammates.
I most recently played for Club Bolmar in La Paz, Bolivia, in their national tournament. As a starter, I averaged 19 points per game and 6 assists in the National League. Prior to that, I played in Peru where I averaged 18 points per game and 7 assists.
After only four games I leave Newcastle as their leading scorer, leading assists and steals in only 17 minutes per game.
I would do anything to stay in this amazing country and will play at NO cost to prove I can play in any league here.
I am prepared to do whatever work is required, coaching clinics, umpiring, mentoring, painting a fence, any job I will own.
I am currently seeking a new professional opportunity to play for your club. If you are interested and think we would be a good fit, I have highlight videos from playing in the Warratah League and overseas which I can send.
I understand this is an unorthodox way of going about it and I apologise to the website for making my case, I hope to hear from an interested team and I thank you for your time.
Yours Sincerely,
Justin
