ATLANTA, GA – The first-ever HBCU All-Stars International Tour to Paris, France, will begin on Wednesday, June 19, 2024, and conclude on Wednesday, June 26, 2024. Some of the nation’s best HBCU All-Stars from the 2022, 2023, and 2024 HBCU All-Star Games in New Orleans, Houston, and Phoenix have been selected to participate in this historic Quai 54 World Streetball Championship at the prestigious Pierre de Coubertin Stadium. The highly anticipated game sold out in just two hours.
The HBCU All-Stars team will participate in a training camp in Atlanta on Monday, June 17, and Tuesday, June 18, that will showcase some of the most talented players from the four premier HBCU NCAA Division I and II conferences, MEAC, SWAC, CIAA, SIAC, and Independent teams.

“This is one of the most important and rare moments in history where we get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and global platform during the Olympic year in Paris to represent our esteemed HBCUs, four premier Black College conferences, the Best in Black College Basketball, and the United States of America in a part of the world where HBCUs and the HBCU culture do not exist,” said Travis L. Williams, Founder and CEO, HBCU All Stars LLC.
