This inspirational professional basketball player, Jeremy Kendle discovered his Christian faith in his teens. Told by others he would never be a professional player; he found a strength beyond any other to pursue his goal to play basketball professionally. Connecting with Hoops for Christ has allowed Jeremy Kendle to expand the brand and ministry to Australia.
Jeremy Kendle has played in Australia's National Basketball League for the Brisbane Bullets and Sydney Kings, as well as winning MVP awards in both the Queensland Basketball League and MVP of the SEABL competition. Two regional competitions which feed the Australian National Basketball League (NBL). He also had a stint as a professional basketball player in the New Zealand - NBL.
Kendle has overcome multiple injuries including a recent ACL tear (in 2019) but despite the adversity continues to be driven by his faith and belief that God does not throw anything his way, which he cannot handle.
Jeremy is now settled in Brisbane, Australia where he continues to work with the Brisbane Bullets, Redland Basketball, Hoops for Christ and his own Jeremy Kendle Basketball business. At time of interview Kendle was rehabbing towards returning to a contracted role with his home team, the Brisbane Bullets.
