Girls, Alex Ciabattoni-S.Tigers u18s bottom age.

What happened to Wilson from mavs

Who are the good "bigs" amongst the girls?

When say big how tall is she now

Zoe Donne (country vic) could be a dark horse. Played her first game of basketball less than 18 months ago. about 190cm and is a state champion high jumper!

Why wasn't Wilson there from macs does anyone know, thought she wld be back after being in 17 squad

Womble.
Are you surprised at the bottom age or top age.
Was surprised myself.

True Womble n 455 I thought the same but
there r a few girls who excell at other sports, volleyball is 1 that grabs them early through the schools system n some even get into rowing!
I'm sure that B.A select on talent and potential rather than if they've heard whether or not they're involved in another sport. If anything a camp like this entices the young ones across! It's pretty obvious they will select in the age groups top n bottom age in 2013. The bottom age girls/boys in the 17's teams don't need to be run down b4 a tournament n they're no brainers, so why not have a look at a few kids that may have just missed out, I would! Especially 1 focussed on another sport and can still mix it with the rest.
IMHO September will be an indicator on what B.A think
The surprise for me is the winners of Australia's premier club tournament don't have a guernsey in the girls

Are you talking vic metro or vic country when you say "vic basketball at its best again". There is a huge difference between the two in its selection but it seems that most posters on this site do not differentiate between the two when throwing shit. If you are genuine it would be more constructive to be more specific in your criticism/bitching! I was told about this site recently and what i was told re this site seems to be spot on. In my career as an athlet/coach the one thing that struck a chord with me was that the most gifted, courageous, talented, innovative, selfless, team oriented and "brainiac" "athlete" was sitting on the side lines with grey/no hair telling everybody within earshot how things should be or used to be done. Seriously, get a life and move on. If you have a child worthy of being discussed on this site then don't read from here or don't take what you read as gospel. Any worthwhile feedback for your child's development will come from a source much closer than any anybody with an axe to grind found on this
site. Please don't feel that I am anti any feedback found on this site. I actually enjoy the opportunity to debate basketball related matters. I am merely pointing out that it is easy to be an expert online. As a reader, if you feel that some points of view don't seem right, chances are you are correct. Remember, this site is tabbed as "junior". If you would struggle to read about your child in such negative terms then don't post comments about someone else's 'child in the same way. If you don't have a child playing the game, then GET OF THIS SITE! As a parent, the most important support your child can have is you. Don't lose sight of that.

anon 327
"People selected have some people amused" Have you considered that the people amused may know very little about the game?" "All people put forward are by the one person". Not true. It is a fact that some of these athletes where already proposed by coaches outside their state. "Some say he is a donkey...." I don't know who you are even talking about but seriously, some people say they where abducted and impregnated by aliens but i remain sceptical about that as well. I am afraid i side with anon 347. Get a life. If you are not happy with how things are working for your child spend less time on this site and more time on the court.

Shy Ronnie, am i missing something. not sure where you are going with that

Letters out today

what about gems camp next week, any news on attendees?

I would imagine most of the u17 team would be invited to that camp

Where did find info re gem camp, ba calendar still stating on next week but no list as yet

They stuffed up the selections of the U17 group so lets hope they get new selectors

Exactly

Two different camps coming up. One for 2011 other start of 2013 squad, lets hope they ask you for your opinions on selection (137)AND (138).

no doubt their girls will be straight in!!

athletes go to netball not basketball
