I thought the revamped Basketball Australia site would provide more regular info. about the Boomers but it appears not.

Under "Tournaments" they still have the team listed as competing in the US Summer League in Vegas which is no longer the case.

How can the profile of the Boomers be lifted when the official body can't even provide regular, accurate information???

Surely the bottom age girl (top age 16) from SA would be in....shes their best bet by far....

Anon 487 - numbers limited by funding and BA. Always will be discussion over the best kids but in terms of the girls program I don't see anyone outside of the 25 who is a glaring omission.

Anon 449 - impressive as the girl to whom you are referring (if I have the right one) is, I certainly wouldn't call her the best bet they have. I do think she;ll be in the team for Brisbane though.

Anon 442 - all campers were advised prior to this camp that they would be invited back for the September Camp - don't think that precludes extra invitees. I'd be very surprised to find that the team for next year was set in concrete given the changes that can occur in 12 months with 15, 16 and 17 year old girls. Perhaps you'd care to name your team, or perhaps allocate places by State?

My info is that 3 AIS scholarships have been offered to girls this week, one of which has been declined. All to talls, not all at the camp.

Schuller told me Taylah Roberts from Tas been offered one and accepted

Wonder if they take them ;fit' or not...seems keep on a lot that are injured or not up to fitness

anon#449 and #495,

Just casue somebody does well in club basketball does not mean that they do well at camps. It is not just about their ability and as much about attitude, coachability and team stuff.

It is easy for a bigger kid to do well when surrounded by smalls. But when they go to the next level, they have to compete against many taller kids and the things they find easy aren't anymore.

I would suggest that 2 of the top age players are a chance, with 2 bottom age player close. But certainly not sure things.

Not unusual for some to decline.....must get all info before deciding...

I Got a quick look at the Vic girls, couple of good P guards, one bottom age girl I hadn't seen before looked good . Along with 4/5 quality talls, bottom age metro centre looked very good, all country girls worked hard and looked fit. Would have to say on what looked like a quality group a fair number of selections will come from that 12 or whatever it was.

Did anyone see the AIS sessions? would be interesting to hear feedback on that.

Also will wait with intrest to hear how the bottom age girls go in Tas considering a few will be watched for a gig in the team/squad.

All reports suggest SAC girls will be looked at with great intrest. the draw has the top teams in the one pool so it will be evident early on who is the top girl in respective positions. But who knows exactly what they want, or if it's already chosen!?
Saying all that, the girls I got a look at training were sharp! Turns out both p guards are at Eltham one is 16's the other 18's IMHO both are contenders as a 1 or a 2! A very fast 3 from metro who couldn't be looked past, great vert n smart.
So, for mine it will be a tough decision for selectors and if the raps on the S.A girls are on the money they will definitely appear in the mix.
But hey I must also mention my gig was footy, I've only found the joys of basketball through haveing sissy sperm no Father son rule here!! Lol. But love the game.

A couple of SAC girls impressed. A bit of a mixed bag for talent. Vic Metro 3 as roweville said, huge talent offence and defence. knee injury in finals or could have been a much bigger win to vic.
