Commitment to the Program

Students accepting a place in the Specialist Basketball Program are expected to continue to study basketball to the end of Year 9 as a minimum. 

  • Over the past two years, Ms Hedley has helped me significantly to improve as a basketball player and an aspiring athlete. In the program, we are exposed to a variety of drills, guest coaches and tournaments, which strongly assists with our growth. I am excited to work with the basketball specialist teachers, high performance coaches and trainers to continue to develop my skills. I look forward to the opportunities they provide over the next few years in pursuing excellence at an elite level.
