The Brock University men’s basketball team is taking their game abroad.

The Badgers left Friday (Aug 28) for Sweden, where they will play four games before returning on Sept. 3

The trip includes visits to the cities of Eskilstuna and Stockholm, where the Badgers will play some of Sweden’s top club teams – Eskilstuna Basket, Jarfalla, Taby Basket and back-to-back Swedish champions Södertälje Kings.

“This is a great opportunity for our players, our program and Brock University to represent internationally,” said head coach Charles Kissi. “We are fortunate here at Brock to have some unique experiences. Our athletes have been training hard this summer and this will be a great pre-season building block.”
