Possible Europe Summer Trip for Mbb 2022

Post by lv2hoop » Thu Apr 14, 2022 6:22 pm

You heard it here first! The guys might be making a trip to Europe in August. No details yet, it's more than just chatter. I'm guessing with Jubrile, Coach Haslem, Amin, Borja, Harald Frey, and Great Osobor etc. being on the team in these past seasons, there's some pent up excitement to cross the Pond for these guys.

It would be an amazing team bonding experience as well as a nice way to pay back having all of those guys making the commitment to Bozeman.

Do they need anybody to carry their bags or fill their water bottles? I won't take up much room.

I'll go too. I lived there for 11 years and I can speak a couple languages. Count me in to carry bags as well.

This would have to be a huge help in recruiting European players to come to MSU, which I believe is a major key to success in a place like MT.

My first thought as well. Haslam has done an amazing job of pulling some big time talent out of Europe.

I have family in Germany, friends in France and Italy.

Road trip.

It would be enjoyable.


Hopefully I remember to go to the WBB dinner. I’ll book a tee time so I don’t forget.


Have a wonderful day!!

Trip is now confirmed. The Bobcats will be in London and Paris in August, playing a number of games as well as touring both cities. Told my kid that it will be a trip of a lifetime, traveling overseas with your team and getting to see a slice of Europe for 10 days :)

Our family has spent time in both on several occasions and we loved it. Loved the cultural aspects, history, exploring the country around, the pubs in London and surrounding bergs, meeting the people. We loved the theater district in London if you enjoy that sort of thing….

Get your walking shoes on and conditioned…..we did both without renting a car…..subways, trains, busses, and cabs when necessary and a lot of hiking. And even had the kids tagging along once!!

Go enjoy if you can!!!

What an amazing opportunity especially for the English players who can represent MSU at home. Just watch out for those roundabouts, they can be tough!

So how do we sign up ?

Will there be a charter or do we do eet ourselves?

Once in a lifetime, maybe twice. It would be worth it.


Have a wonderful day!!
