WBA League Tryouts
Free Agent Camp

March 24 - 25, 2006
Life University
1269 Barclay Circle
Marietta, GA 30060

The World Basketball Association will hold its Free Agent League Tryouts on March 24th & 25th, 2006 at Life University in Marietta, Georgia. This camp will be conducted in order to give free agents an opportunity to be exposed to the 14 teams in the WBA. There will be a Free Agent Selection Draft held directly after the camp.

Last season, approximately 40 players were drafted by the 12 teams in the League. This season, 66 players will be drafted, as each team will select in 8 rounds. Drafted free agents will report directly to team training camps after the Free Agent camp, joining vets and protected players for preparation for opening night. Teams participating in the 2006 WBA are...

Eastern Conference: Anderson, SC; Gainesville, GA; Greenville, SC; Macon, GA; Peachtree City, GA
Central Conference: Tuscaloosa, AL; Cleveland, TN; Marietta, GA; Murfreesboro, TN; Rome, GA
Western Conference: Biloxi, MS; Arkansas; Mississippi; South Haven, MS; Slidell, LA
The WBA is a stepping stone for you aspiring pro players! In 2004, numerous players moved on to professional playing jobs overseas, as well as, in the CBA and NBDL - even the NBA - as former WBA players David Young was drafted by Seattle and Kyle Davis was signed as a free agent by the New Jersey Nets. Currently, Josh Powell is playing with the Dallas Mavericks and Damien Wilkins with the Seattle Sonics.

Make your dream a reality with the WBA League Tryouts!
