15 and under boys needed
We need 5 x boys to make 2nd team
Whakatu flames was originally set up to give our girls the opportunity to play more basketball and not just be closed to representative players.
We have been running 3 years now and take a girls' team to Tauranga for hoop nation and Wanganui for junior show case tournaments.
We are wanting to extend our club to include boy's teams as well.
(This is subject to securing registration as it's a first come first served with limited numbers, but we have several parents sitting on computers waiting to register as soon as they open on November 13th 2022) so we are hopeful .
Junior show case 2023 is April 18th to 21st (2nd week school hoildays)
We take a team of 8 girls , hoping to take 2 this year and possibly a boys' team.
We take 8 players as we want them to have as much court time as possible.
We currently have one boys' team and 3 for a 2nd.
Games are four 8 min quarters with running clock.
