Selection into Basketball Victoria’s development programs provides athletes with further opportunities to challenge themselves, learn from different coaches and environments, and continue their development within the Victorian basketball pathway.
For Nunawading Basketball, these selections are an encouraging reflection of the work being undertaken across our representative program. While individual recognition is something to celebrate, our focus remains on creating an environment where athletes are supported, challenged and encouraged to continue improving, both on and off the court.
We also acknowledge the important role played by coaches across the broader basketball community who have contributed to these athletes’ development over many years.
Congratulations to all 34 athletes on their selection. We look forward to following their continued development and wish them every success throughout their involvement in the programs.
