The members of the 2009 and 2010 Dickinson College Women's Basketball Team toured the beautiful country of Costa Rica.  The team left from Reagan International Airport the morning of July 31st and returned at midnight on August 9th.  The team traveled with American International Sports Tours (AIST).  Our tour guide was Roberto Aguillar and our bus driver was Edward Calderon.  Our local AIST manager in charge of our competitions was Fernando Nietzen.  The team would like to sincerely thank AIST, Roberto, Edward, Fernando and his wife Evette and all the people of Costa Rica for a once in a lifetime experience and a spectacular tour.

This page is dedicated to describing the journey of the thirteen members of DCWB.  The team explored rain forests, cloud forests, volcanoes, beaches, cities and villages.  The team was able to play a game against the Junior National Team in Puntarenas.  On the day of this game, the team provided a Coaches Clinic for the local youth boys and girls basketball coaches of the region.  DCWB also played the Costa Rican National Team two times in San Jose and was able to compete against a team preparing for the World Games as a precursor for their attempt to make the 2012 Olympics in London.
