Rep Training & Assessments. U16 & U18

We’re kicking off Rep training and assessments this Friday.

If you know anyone interested in trialling, pass this on!

Our Rep program is a step up from our Friday night games, higher level training, higher expectations, elite coaching and real commitment required.
This is the team we take to regional carnivals and specialised camp opportunities.
For kids who are serious about their basketball and getting in front of Regional Selectors for bigger opportunities then you won’t want to miss these trials.

For those who have completed a Rep term before, you already know the level. You’re all encouraged to come back and trial again.

This is for players ready to take it up a notch! No need to register just be present on the day for trials.

TERM 2 Basketball! 🏀

Team allocations, and coaches will be announced at our Draft & Team Selection Night.

When: Friday 24th April

This first session is all about assessing players, building balanced teams, announcing training sessions and dates, team names and uniforms.

Once teams are selected, we’ll roll straight into a light training and scrimmage so everyone gets on court.

Huge shout out to Michelle from Bartrac Toyota for lending our league a hybrid car to get the boys up to the Port Douglas Carnival with Douglas Heat Basketball Club

It’s gestures like this that make a real difference as it means half our team can now make the trip.

Thank you from all of us at the league, Michelle, you helped make this happen 🙌

And thank you to employee and parent Nat for also making this happen. We appreciate you Nat!!

A short reel to showcase our very first Basketball Camp!
This is just purely a snippet of what the day entailed.
9 Athletes representing FNQ Basketball travelled to cairns along side their coach Adrian Rolonato train under Junior Viranatuleo. They then went on to play 2 games against Cooktown at the Trinity Ford Stadium in cairns.
It was a great day out and an opportunity for our teams to bond and further cement the core values of what it is to be a team player. Big shout out to Junior, the Cooktown team and coaches, our refs, Coach Adrian, Lucas Todd for helping out, and to all our parents that help make this happen for the kids. A no phone policy on the bus trip there and back was single handedly my personal highlight. Listening to the boys talk and laugh is a great reminder of what it’s all about and why we are so invested in our youth!!! Great job to all our boys for showing up consistently. Here’s to more camps on the horizon!

Big shout out to our sponsors FNQ MOTOR GROUP and Marano Fuel in Tully!

In the market for a new car? You know where to go! Need to fuel that new car up? There is only one fuel station you need to think of! Maranos!

Well done to Ashley Weaver, Beau Sherriff and Justin Daveson for making the District Trials.

Today, along with eight other boys from Innisfail, they played five fierce games of basketball against teams from Atherton through to T.I. The boys all played exceptionally well.

Representing the Cassowary Coast Region at Peninsula will be Jordan Blundell from Innisfail. Although Jordan isn’t part of our club, he is still a representative of our region and we are incredibly proud of him and this achievement.

The remaining team members were selected from Cairns high schools, and together the squad will go on to compete at the State Championships on the Gold Coast.

A huge effort from all the boys who competed today. Hard work and dedication pays off

A big shout out to Mr Will and Coach Adrian for looking after the team today.

We have some amazing talent right here in the Cassowary Coast!!
