Calling all U12 Girl & Boy 🏀 Players!! We are looking for our next future stars to represent Hervey Bay Hurricanes🌪️
What’s more exciting is the opportunity to be a part of one of the 1st ever CQJB Carnival’s held in Hervey Bay 🙌 with your home crowd cheering you on!!
Under 12 Representative league is a great way for kids to develop their basketball skill set with additional coaching and games against other associations. It is a fun experience for players to meet new friends, learn more about the game and representative sport ⛹🏽♂️⛹🏼♀️There is an additional cost to Rep Basketball but we are very fortunate to have support from many local businesses who significantly reduce costs for our players and their families!

🩵💜Good luck to our U16 Hurricane Boys! 🩵💜
Our U16 Boys head into their final games tomorrow at the State Championships, we are all sending our virtual cheers to you all! It’s been a hard-fought tournament — with some solid wins, a few tough losses, more than our fair share of injuries, and yes... a couple of very over-caffeinated coaches keeping the energy high on the bench! ☕🏀
But through it all, what makes a great tournament is the team spirit, the laughter, and the incredible camaraderie the players and coaching staff share.
Go hard tomorrow, boys — finish strong, have fun, and know we are all here behind you! 🙌🔥
