Sam, Ken and I would like to thank everyone for your support and donations to make this amazing opportunity and USA trip happen for Sam.
The work and dedication that Sam has put in over the last 12 months has been amazing and has shown on the court!
As we say our goodbyes at the international airport and I cry like a little baby, we all hope you have the most amazing time ever and show the USA what AUS is all about!!! We all love you so much and all though we won't be cheering on the side lines physically there, I hope you know we all are in spirit!! Good luck Sambo ⛹️‍♂️🏀🇦🇺🇺🇲

Sam Shaw is making big moves on the basketball court! Fresh off winning the U16 Boys Shield State Championship 2025 at Basketball Tasmania State Championships with Glenorchy Basketball Association.

Sam has been selected to represent Australia on the AUSA Tour in July 2026.

We couldn’t be prouder of his dedication, talent, and vision for the future.

To help turn this dream into reality, Sam is currently raising funds to cover the cost of this incredible opportunity, which includes training camps, travel, accommodation and tournament exposure in the USA. The cost for this is $9,450 which does NOT include the Flights or Lunch and Dinners.

This is a huge opportunity for Sam to showcase his basketball talent on an international stage, with the goal of securing a college scholarship in the US.

If you’d like to support Sam, donations, sponsorships, and shares are all greatly appreciated! Please click the link below to donate.
