Basketball: 2022 U20 Men’s and Canberra Gunners Academy Trials

Basketball ACT will conduct 2022 trials for the U20 Men’s team and Gunners Academy Program. Please see trial details and the link for registration below.

Players born in 2003 and 2004 are eligible to be selected for the 2022 ACT U20 Men’s Representative Team. Team preparation and selection for the U20 Australian Junior Championships (AJC), which are scheduled for late April/early May (dates TBC) in Mackay, Qld, will be conducted within and concurrently with the Canberra Gunners Academy team. Leading into the U20 Australian Junior Championships, there will be some ‘stand-alone’ trainings and practice games.

The Canberra Gunners Academy Team largely targets players that are under 23 years of age. The Academy will compete in the NSW Waratah-1 League from 2022. This competition will meet Basketball ACT requirements for a stronger competition for our most talented young men whilst also effectively underpinning the senior Canberra Gunners Team that will complete in the NBL-1 East from 2022.

U20M / Gunners Academy Trials will be held at Radford on the following dates:

  • Friday, 26 November ,6:45-8:45pm (open trial – mandatory participation)

Junior School water polo

Friday Night Water Polo commenced last week at CISAC. It was great to see our Junior School students compete in the interschools competition, against other Catholic, independent and public schools.

Both the Radford Racers and Rockets played two games, with several new students playing the game for the first time.

Smiles all round made the first round a huge success.
