GBC AGM and week 2 of our finals campaign

Posted on by

I would like to take this last opportunity to remind all Coaches and Team Managers of the Greenvale Basketball Club Annual General Meeting which is on this Wednesday 14th August at 7pm at the Greenvale Rec Centre. It would great to see at least one representative from each of our 46 teams there to hear the summary of the past year, and support the election of our new Committee.

Strong participation in Week 1 of the Finals has already seen 17 x GBC teams go through to Grand Finals. Congratulations to those teams, and commiserations to the teams that have finished their finals campaign for the Winter 2013 season.

For the 3 x GBC Under 8 teams playing their last scheduled game this week. Upon the completion of the games, can all players, team officials, family members and supporters please proceed to the Members Bar Area under the Main Stadium seating for formal presentations.

To the 24 x GBC teams participating in week 2 of finals games this Saturday, best of luck. Please refer below for details surrounding this week’s Finals fixturing.

Regards, Paul Byron, Greenvale Basketball Club – President

Basketball as art

Posted on by

Basketball can be many things to many people and today’s finals effort by all was also a photographic inspiration to one of our young players .. Brendon from the Under 16s Sharks. Take a look at his work.

Does basketball inspire you in art form or other ways? Why don’t you share it with us?
