The 2011 LeBron James Greater China Tour wrapped up with Opening of Nike Festival of Sport »

The 2011 LeBron James Greater China Tour ended its successful journey with a coaching clinic and the much-anticipated opening day of the first annual Nike Festival of Sport in Shanghai. The Game Changers basketball coaching clinic, held this morning at Shanghai Sports University, is an ongoing program aimed at teaching college students the importance coaching has in children’s lives. LeBron James practiced alongside the future coaches before delivering a speech on how adult coaches are able to positively influence the development of young minds through athletics. After snapping photos with the 100 participants, James went to a Nike Store located near People’s Square to talk about the Nike Festival of Sport with national Chinese media and to greet fans. Asked to give a review of the tour overall, James responded emphatically. “It’s been unbelievable to see the reception I’ve gotten, and to see all of these people who love the game of basketball and who are inspired by the game of basketball,” said James.
