Winter 1-Day Competition
NSW AAU SPRING HARBOUR HOOPFEST
We couldn’t be prouder of our 12s Boys for their outstanding performance at the NSW AAU Spring Harbour Hoopfest, finishing 2nd overall in a highly competitive field.
This group showed exactly what our club stands for — heart, hustle, and togetherness. Every game was played with intensity, selflessness, and belief in one another. They competed for every possession, lifted each other in tough moments, and represented the club with class on and off the court. Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it.
This tournament is a glimpse of what’s to come. More events like this are on the horizon in 2026, and we’re excited to keep building these opportunities for our athletes.

NAIDOC 2025 (AIS Canberra)
Our teams had an incredible showing at the 2025 NAIDOC Tournament, proudly hosted by the Warriors Basketball Club in collaboration with Basketball ACT. We entered two teams into the competition, and both went undefeated through the round games and semi-finals. It was an exciting and proud moment for our club to see both teams advance all the way to the Finals!
U12 Boys were the CHAMPIONS after a fierce battle against Big Max.
U14 Boys were the RUNNERS UP in a tough run against Shmozzles.
We're already looking forward to next year's NAIDOC Tournament and are aiming to send as many teams as possible. The excitement and success from this year have only fuelled our enthusiasm to come back even stronger!
Summer Season 2024/25
We had an amazing summer season with 16 out of our 19 teams making it to semifinals and 8 of our teams finishing on the podium.
