China DailyJintian Jay Li, CEO of Realeague, and Seetow Cheng Fave, the secretary-general of AUSF, shake hands at the signing ceremony. The partnership, sealed with a 10-year commitment, was signed in Hong Kong on Friday and aims to establish a collegiate league that will foster camaraderie and competition among the region's top university basketball teams. Speaking at the partnership signing ceremony, Seetow Cheng Fave, the secretary-general of AUSF, emphasized the federation's mission of creating platforms for student-athletes across Asian universities to engage, compete and grow together through sports. With the recognition that campus culture matters in college basketball, the new league aims to invite first-class Asian universities, all of which can boast vast alumni networks.
