welcome to caps nation If you weren’t here last week you missed a couple of great opening round games - both went down to the wire and for the men it was a double overtime win. Trevor Lidstone General Manager Brisbane Basketball Inc In other news around the stadium last week also saw the start of the Junior Championship season - to give you some idea the competitions comprise over 170 teams and on Friday night the competitions are played at 5 venues across 12 courts, on Saturday we are here and at Kedron with the younger group - mini-hoops to U13s. We are fortunate to be able to offer our young members access to a range of competition levels. Hopefully there is an opportunity for all to come, play and enjoy our wonderful game. In this regards we are with the support of our junior clubs leading a change to our U9s where we will now have separate boys and girls competitions, this has not been the case in the past so we are excited about the prospect of attracting more young girls to our clubs and association. Please help us by passing this inclusive message on. To close out last week both our SBL men and women enjoyed an opening round win against some tough opposition at home. Thank you for coming to Auchenflower I hope we can put on 2 more great games...oh and don’t forget to cheer and CHEER loudly !!! 3
