ABL與寶島夢想家在台灣攜手發展籃球


OCTOBER 28, 2019

The ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) and the Formosa Dreamers continue in unity
in further developing basketball in Taiwan.

ABL與寶島夢想家將繼續團結發展台灣的籃球運動。


Since the Formosa Dreamers’ entry into the league, Taiwan’s thirst for more
basketball action became apparent. Due to Dreamers’ newfound success, it
still took two years for the ABL to recognize that the Taiwanese market was
worth investing time and resources in.

自從寶島夢想家加入聯盟後，台灣展現了對籃球活動更多的渴望。由於夢想家新興的成功
，ABL聯盟仍花了兩年意識到台灣的市場值得投入時間和資源。


In 2017, searching for the right partner to grow the sport in Taiwan, the ABL
looked to the newly- established Formosa Dreamers to be the partner to
develop and transform Taiwan’s basketball culture. The Formosa organization
drew inspiration from John Lennon’s quote saying, “A dream you dream alone
is only a dream. A dream you dream together is a reality.”

在2017年，ABL在台灣尋求對的合作夥伴來發展這項運動，希望新成立的寶島夢想家能成
為發展及改變台灣籃球文化的夥伴。夢想家由約翰藍儂的名言而受到啟發："一個人做的
夢僅是夢想。一群人一起做的夢能成真。"


Despite coming from different backgrounds, the Dreamers’ founders shared the
same passion for basketball which was perfect for the ABL’s agenda, and
together, they set their goals on bringing a positive change to the Taiwanese
basketball scene. The ABL quickly recognized that the Formosa Dreamers was
the right fit in pursuing their common goals.

儘管來自不同的背景，夢想家的創辦人們對籃球有一樣的熱情，和ABL的方向一致，並設
定共同目標在為台灣的籃球的前景帶來正向的改變。ABL很快意識到寶島夢想家是共同實
現目標的正確人選。


Thanks to the Formosa Dreamers’ efforts, with just two seasons in the ABL,
the Formosa Dreamers have established themselves as the most popular team in
Taiwan. The team’s culture of excellence and their battle through adversity
have also translated to increase stadium attendance as the Dreamers have
consistently almost filled up 6,600 seats available at the Changhua Stadium
during their home games. Dreamers supporters flock from all over Taiwan.

多虧寶島夢想家的努力，僅在ABL兩季的時間內，寶島夢想家已經成為台灣最受歡迎的球隊
。球隊的卓越文化和在逆境中的拚戰也增加了球賽的觀眾數，夢想家主場比賽期間幾乎能
填滿有6,600個座位的彰化體育館。來自台灣各地的夢想家支持蜂擁而至。


As the ABL continues to grow, so does Taiwan as an emerging basketball
territory. As such, the league also looks to move forward in solidarity with
the Dreamers organization as they continue to work together in pursuing and
achieving its shared purpose of growing the love of basketball in the region
as well as the level of competition.

隨著ABL的成長，台灣作為籃球新興發展地也同樣成長。同樣地，聯盟也希望與夢想家的組
織一同團結向前，並共同實現目標，希望能擴大這個地區對籃球的熱愛及提升比賽的水準
。


Dreamers, with the exclusive right to operate a basketball team in Taiwan and
ABL, is willing to open the door to welcome another Taiwan-based team, the
Taipei Fubon Braves, to join the ABL’s roster of teams for the upcoming
season. Despite the discussion between Formosa Dreamers and ABL took longer
than expected, and even misunderstandings arose, both the Dreamers and the
ABL quickly came to a mutual agreement of bolstering the league’s and
Dreamers’ efforts in establishing a solid basketball culture in Taiwan. ABL
highly appreciates Formosa Dreamers’ great vision and selfless spirit.

擁有ABL在台灣獨家經營權的夢想家，願意敞開大門歡迎另一隻以台灣為主場的球隊，台北
富邦勇士加入ABL這一季的新球隊行列。儘管夢想家與ABL聯盟間花了比預期更長的時間協
商，甚至產生了一些誤會，但夢想家與ABL很快的達成共同的協議，以支持聯盟及夢想家在
台灣建立穩固籃球文化的努力。ABL非常讚賞寶島夢想家的遠見及無私的精神。


Thanks to the Formosa Dreamers’ unselfish mindset, the ABL now has two teams
in Taiwan. This season will surely be a testament to the strong efforts of
Formosa Dreamers, Taipei Fubon Braves, and ABL in building a better
basketball scene in Taiwan.

由於夢想家無私的心態，現在ABL擁有兩隻台灣的球隊。本季將可以更加證明寶島夢想家、
台北富邦勇士及ABL聯盟正在台灣建構更好的籃球前景。
