The Otago Under 13 Girl’s A and B Teams have been selected. 

All the coaches would like to thank all the girls and parents who attended the Gore Tournament.  A massive thanks to Jan, Kylie, and Abbie for managing the teams.

Finalising the teams was difficult for the coaches, as they understand that not being selected is tough to hear at any age.  If you did not make a team, continue to put in time working on your basketball skills.  See the BBO website “Pathways” page organised development opportunities.

If anyone would like feedback on selections please contact Gary at garysmyth66@outlook.co.nz.

Two tournaments remain for the A and B teams moving forward. Both teams go to both tournaments!  The dates are the 14-15 of September in Invercargill, and 9-12 of October in Ashburton (leaving 8th, returning the 12th or 13th (TBD)). 

We would like to congratulate the following players on their selection to the teams.
