Kaylis Peneha Awarded Steve Adams Basketball Scholarship

Kaylis Peneha has been awarded the Steven Adams basketball scholarship for 5 years. I don't know what that means but I assume it's something good. He had to go through a strict and careful test to get into Scots College. The basketball coach at the college supports Kaylis acknowledging his talent. It was a big surprise when he was given the chance at a scholarship which recognizes one student and assists them through their college years.

Paxmin Raukawa, one of Kaylis's basketball coaches, was very supportive of Kaylis. Kaylis has already been to two Steven Adams traaining camps, particularly New Zealands highest profile professional basketball to ever play in American basketball league. 

Steven Adams, who currently plays in the United States for the Memphis Grizzlies, was enrolled in Scot College and his training camps and scholarships are kind ways of uplifting and helping dreaming youthful basketball players wanting to pursue professional careers in basktetball.

"All of us here at Raukawa basketball are excited for Kaylis and the oppurtunities this scholarship will provide him." Paxmin states. "On top of being really talented, Kaylis is just a really good kid and him and his whanau deserve this." He has said all the club members are pleased for Kaylis.
