I'm Guillaume, 18 years old from Québec, Canada.

I wasn't interested at all in the sport of Basketball until I turned 17, Before that I used to do martial arts, circus, acrobatics, and other stuff completely unrelated..In each sport that I did, people always told me that I was ''too tall'' and it always pissed the hell out of me. One day my friend came home with a dvd of And1 Streetball Mixtape, and I fell in love with basketball.I had found ''THE'' sport, that could let me appreciate my height and my athletic skills. From that day I started practising almost day and night, mostly my dribbling, and I gave all my heart to the sport. I become really good at it really quick..I went to my local ballpark and had a go with the guys that play there...They were all from the big teams in the town and they were really amazed when I told them that I never played B-Ball before.


The rest of the summer I spent practising my handles, my shots and my moves.


Next year when I started school, I went to the tryouts for the team in my college, and surprisingly I made the team...It started on a slow note, because I didn't know all the mechanics of team play and stuff, but with hard work and dedication I became a very good team player, and I am now a starting shooting guard for my team... Next year I am changing college, to go to the best basketball college in Quebec. I will most likely train to try my shot at THE big league, the AAA division.
