With NCAA D1 path set, Kieffer Alas set for Perth training camp
KIEFFER Alas will now begin his global journey as he is set to fly to Australia.
The top ranked high school basketball star in the country will be heading to Perth this weekend to begin his intensive training as he chases glory in the international stage.
His father Louie confirmed the news to Spin.ph as the UAAP Season 87 boys basketball MVP will be under the watchful eye of coach Andrew Cooper.
“Isang buwan si Kieffer doon, and then tuloy na siya sa States,” he shared, laying out the pathway that the younger Alas will take.
Alas said that they have already come into terms with an NCAA Division I school where the Gilas Pilipinas Youth star will play next, although they are opting to keep it hidden for the meantime.
Nonetheless, the focus is on strengthening and holistic improvement to the game of the younger Alas who is coming off a solid stint in the 2025 Smart-NBTC National Finals as he led Phenom Blue Fire-Pasay to a runner-up finish.
