Two American basketball coaches, Paul Haught and his son Robbie Haught, out of Cleveland Basketball School are reportedly in Belize on a full-country tour, providing high level training at different venues across the country. The trip was arranged by American coach Bernie Tarr, presently on contract with the National Sports Council, and is being conducted in coordination with the Ministry of Sports, the National Sports Council, Sports Minister Hon. John Saldivar, the Basketball Federation of Belize (BBF), and various district branch associations of the BBF.
