It will be led by Ethan Burgess and at this stage assistant coaches will be Mia, Luke, Jill and hopefully we can get Aaron🤞for a session or two.
Just wondering who are the coaches, will it be multiple coaches like the u16 program?

🎉 CELEBRATING SUCCESS THROUGH COLLABORATION 🏀
This year, HBBA revised its Strategic Plan with a clear vision for the future: to align everything we do around our core values of Community Focus, Collaboration, Inclusion, Integrity and Development.
As the season draws to a close, we’re proud to celebrate the initiatives that reflect this vision in action - starting with Collaboration.
📈 GROWTH IN REP BASKETBALL
In just four years, our Rep Program has gone from just 4 teams to 12 Hervey Bay teams competing at QLD State Championships annually! That growth wouldn’t have been possible without support from other associations who once welcomed our players - and we haven’t forgotten.
🤝 NEW POLICY. SHARED OPPORTUNITIES.
This year, we introduced a new Rep Selection Policy to give back.
CQ Associations who can't field a team in a particular age group can now nominate up to 2 players to trial with HBBA - ensuring fairness for our members whilst supporting regional development - without undermining the growth of other associations through unintended player movement.
This season, we proudly welcomed 3 junior female players from Maryborough Basketball & Kingaroy Basketball into our rep program. Their inclusion has strengthened our teams and deepened our regional connections.
👏 COACHES & CLINICS
Our inclusive culture has also attracted amazing talent - like Deborah Alloway, who coached our U12 Hurricanes Girls - and opened the door for shared clinics and training opportunities with other associations Northside Wizards Basketball Bundaberg Basketball
🌟 These are more than wins on the scoreboard. They’re milestones on our journey to becoming:
The heart of basketball in our region - where everyone belongs, every game connects community, and every court empowers growth, opportunity, and integrity.

CQJBC Day 2 Results 💙💜
Our Hurricanes continued to show heart and determination across all divisions today!
🏀Div 1 Boys fought hard in two close contests, narrowly falling to the top two teams by just 1 and 2 points.
🏀Div 2 Boys were unstoppable, recording four straight wins and establishing themselves as the team to beat.
🏀Girls showed great resilience, going down to Gladstone by 3 points before an upset loss to Bundaberg this afternoon.
With two carnivals remaining, the race for gold is wide open — and our teams are ready to keep putting in the work before we meet our CQ rivals again soon. 💪
A big thank you to our legendary sponsors for supporting our Hurricanes family! 🙏
