In a Aruba Juniors Sport Complex packed to maximum capacity with the team supporters, the deciding Liga Superior Final Game#5, best of five series, was played. The end results RCA Romar Trading Kliphunters winning the championship title. And, it wasnt an easy task. As is it took all five games of the series, to get this crown. To top this, the last final game went into over-time before they could say good bye to YMCA NBO Ling and Sons. The wait for this Champagne was a long for this But, finally they got to spray and celebrate with the champagne. Its been long over due... YMCA NBO Ling and Sons proved to be more than just a easy contender, as they came from down and under two games in the series, to force this game five. So, this victory for RCA Kliphunters comes with immense struggle as YMCA NBO Ling and Sons was not going to be put away that easy. For now we will just extend our congratulation to RCA Romar Trading Kliphunter as the 2010 Liga Superior Champions and also for YMCA NBO Ling and Sons with the sub-champion Title. Liga Minor RCA Kliphuters also got crowned with the Championship title and Dakota Basketball got the sub-championship title.

Aruba's best young player: Kieran Celaire - Apr 26, 2008 (by Eurobasket)
Aruba is no basketball hotbed, but even on this tiny island talent can be found. Such was the case this past April when I visited and identified several young players who might have a future in the US. Now, potential is a hard thing to bet on ,but at least one of the players I saw made me feel confident . Keiran Celaire is a promising young player and at 17 has the time to develop into a very good player. Alejandro Duinkerk aslo has some ability.

Aruba is no basketball hotbed, but even on this tiny island talent can be found. Such was the case this past April when I visited and identified several young players who might have a future in the US. Now, potential is a hard thing to bet on ,but at least one of the players I saw made me feel confident . Keiran Celaire is a promising young player and at 17 has the time to develop into a very good player. Alejandro Duinkerk aslo has some ability. I will write a brief scouting report on each.
Keiran Celaire: 6'7'' , long and rangy athlete, good vertical and reaction time. Has very good lateral speed for height and excellent timing. Shooting mechaninc needs work , but he is close to becoming a steady mid-range player. His athleticism dictates that he will be able to cover the 3 position in the perimeter. At this point , he needs to continue to develop strength and get into a more competitive basketball atmosphere before his level of play can be adequately predicted. There is every indicator that he will be a NCAA Division 1 level player when he graduates High School, but what level of Division one will be determined by his progress in the coming year or two.
Alejandro Duinkerk- 6'5'', strong and raw athlete type player. Alejandro still needs to work on the nuances of the game ,but during our clinics he was attentive and displayed very good muscle memory. He can be effective as a phycial player and help out a team . He will need to continue to develop his overall game to be truly effective in the states , but he seems to be a hard worker and someone that can be coached.
