Basketball championships set to hit Casey

The Australian Under-14 Club Championships are set to take place this September at Casey Stadium, with 24 teams promising non-stop, high-level junior basketball action over seven days.

A 50-year tradition, the event is sponsored by the City of Casey and hosted in partnership between Basketball Australia and the Casey Basketball Association.

The Under-14 Club Championships have long been a vital platform for nurturing young basketball talent across the country, with Casey’s chief executive officer Glenn Patterson saying that hosting is a tremendous honour for the city.

“Organisers are expecting an influx of visitors to Casey Stadium during the championships,” he said.

“We encourage local basketball fans to take advantage of this opportunity to see some of the best young talent in the country compete right here in Casey.

“The event is an excellent opportunity for our community to enjoy a week of exciting basketball action and we look forward to welcoming the players, their families, officials and supporters to Casey and wish all teams the very best in the competition.”

The championships will run from 21 to 27 September, with all spectators encouraged to attend.
