Leaders of Unites Thirty thr33 Vol. II is online!
3X3 Unites launches a new book: Thirty Thr33 Vol. 2. The book is a sequel to the first book which features the stories of 3X3 Leaders. 'With the second book, we have taken the next step.'
In this thick book, special and unique stories of 33 3X3 Leaders are collected. They impressively tell their personal story, the development they have undergone at 3X3 Unites, and the dreams they want to pursue. Supported by cool photos that show who these 3X3 Leaders are.
‘Across the country, we train young people and help them develop themselves through 3X3 basketball. Then, they have the chance to take ownership and make a difference in their own environment one by one,’ says Jesper Jobse, co-founder of 3X3 Unites. 'We want to share these stories.'
3X3 Unites was determined to follow up on the successful Thirty Thr33 Vol. 1, in which 33 3X3 Leaders also shared their stories. 'The idea for the book came from the fact that the young people of 3X3 Unites do so many cool things, but we don't always know the story behind the young people themselves, where they come from, and what drives them,' says Birgit Taal-Soethof on behalf of 3X3 Unites.
At the presentation of Thirty Thr33 Vol. 2, it became clear that a next step has been taken in the design and concept of the book: the black and white pages have been replaced with color. This especially enhances the impact of the portrait photos, taken by Arno Stevens, making them even more captivating. The interviews were conducted by Bas Rozendaal.
The book is now also available for purchase online. Taal-Soethof: "By purchasing the book, you contribute to the development of young people and the work that 3X3 Unites can do. All the money we invest in the foundation."
