December 9, 200916 yr @ 198cm and 110 kg, im surprised they let you play for that long could be different if you took up muay thai thou
December 10, 200916 yr Better put on more weight if you want to work underneath. Seriously basketball will be in full swing when you get here. The International schools more than likely will have impromptu practice on Saturdays/Sundays afternoon. Coaching for the next year may be possible, check with athletic directors. Dara always fields a good basketball team (Thai school) and they normally have someone playing who will match your weight but maybe not the height. good luck
