Bradenton (PRBuzz.com) February 21, 2014 -- AAU made a powerful declaration to enhance their time-honored brand by naming Eric Dailey its International Basketball Director. As one of the nation’s chief sports organizations, AAU has been in existence since 1888. Once respected as a giant worldwide, AAU worked alongside the Olympic movement. To date, the conglomerate endorses thirty-four (34) sports programs, upwards of 250 national championships and represents over half a million participants. AAU headquarters is located in sunny Lake Buena Vista, Florida - a few blocks from the prominent Walt Disney World Resort. This American icon serves host to 16% of the national championships in agreement with its own thirty (30) year contract.
Keeping Florida ties, Eric Dailey is a native Floridian with roots in Ocala less than eighty (80) miles from AAU’s control center. Dailey is a ten (10) year international professional basketball player. During his tenure, he was a versatile threat on major teams in Europe, Asia, and South America. His claim to fame was the duality of power forward type size and strength coupled with a guard like shooting and passing. However, Dailey’s greatest take-a-way from his overseas stint was the multicultural social enrichment. “Living abroad taught me the world is bigger than what I could ever imagine. But I noticed basketball was a common thread, a way to connect us to foreign lands".
