A golden night at the 3X3 Unites Academy! ✨📖

Yesterday, Olympic gold medalist and author took our 3X3 Leaders behind the scenes of their brand-new book Goud, a story rooted in the Bijlmer and written for anyone chasing their own “gold.” 🥇

They opened up about mindset, identity, creativity, culture, and the power of opportunity. What followed was a real and inspiring conversation about ambition and the drive to keep going. 🙌

The night closed with a Q&A, signed books, and a whole lot of motivation to fuel our own journeys. And then the energy flipped into full competitive mode as everyone hit the court and started ballin’. 🔥🏀

A night full of community, inspiration, and stories that matter. ❤️

LEADERS OF UNITES NO. 126 // THIJS MICHIELSEN

Thijs spent his childhood living in different countries, and during his family’s time in Portland he was first introduced to basketball. Moving around taught him to adapt quickly, and later he learned the importance of speaking up and communicating in friendships.

He went on to play at a high level in his youth, but after a cruciate ligament injury he eventually stepped away from the game and searched for new direction. Connecting with 3X3 Unites gave him that spark again. In Haarlem, he helped set up a 3X3 Leader Course, completed it himself, and organized the 3X3 Street League as the final event.

The course reminded him how basketball builds trust, teamwork and initiative. Today, Thijs coordinates programs in several cities and teaches Leader Courses, grateful to make an impact through the sport again.

Check out his full story via the link in bio & drop some love in the comments!

The first 3X3 Leader to win a World Tour title! 🏆🔥

From the courts of Amersfoort to the World Tour stage, .vantilborg just made history as the first-ever 3X3 Leader to win a FIBA 3x3 World Tour event, taking the title in Bucharest with Team Amsterdam! 🇳🇱✨

Daen was part of one of our very first 3X3 Leader Courses in Amersfoort and has been involved in many 3X3 Unites events over the years — from the 3X3 PRO League to the World Tour Amsterdam. His journey shows exactly what “from the streets to the top” is all about. 🙌

As Daen once said: “That’s exactly what Unites is about — stepping outside your comfort zone, learning new things, and passing them on to the next generation.”

We’re so proud of Daen for this amazing achievement — congratulations to him and the whole team!

He’s been inspiring others on and off the court for years, proving that dedication, heart, and community can take you anywhere. 💪
