πŸ’šπŸ’› A Big Thank You to Our GYB Supporters πŸ€

Although our U16, U18 and U19 Representative teams wrapped up their tournaments a few weeks ago, we still wanted to take a moment to give a huge thank you to the incredible businesses and individuals who supported our players through their Got Your Back (GYB) Tops.

Each of these supporters donated $100 to secure a prime spot on the GYB Top, helping our players with the costs of representing Basketball Mid Canterbury.

Your generosity helped make their representative journey possible, and we are incredibly grateful for every person and business who chose to get behind our young athletes.

So, a little bit late β€” but very much appreciated β€” thank you for having our players' backs! πŸ’šπŸ’›πŸ€

We couldn't do it without the amazing support of our local community. πŸ™Œ

πŸ€ NBS Men’s Grade | Wednesday Night Wrap-Up πŸ€

Another big night of basketball with two great games on the court!

πŸ”₯ Eagles 88 – 127 Nomads
Nomads put on a shooting masterclass, knocking down 18 three-pointers at 50%, with Nick Fechney finishing with an incredible 42 points. The fast-paced Nomads offence and 30 assists helped them pull away for a big win.

⚑ Checkers 85 – 96 FDWNZ
A tight contest all the way through three quarters before FDWNZ pulled away late. Their defensive pressure was a huge factor, forcing 17 steals, while Checkers dominated the boards with 52 rebounds.
