Foreign trips returning to college basketball
May 25th, 2023 by Ric Hanson
With the COVID pandemic in the rear view mirror college basketball teams are starting to schedule trips overseas in the summer once again. Maury Hanks is president of Global Sports Management and helps teams with overseas travels. He says they are returning to pre-pandemic levels.
Hanks says financial considerations will determine the destination for a trip. He has put together a summer trip for the Drake men’s basketball team to Spain.
Hanks says the NCAA allows a foreign trip once every four years.
Canada and the Bahamas are also popular destinations for summer trips.
