Junior Representative

Teams are selected from young basketball players who compete in the Cairns Basketball junior competitions. The players will attend trials from which teams of boys and girls are selected. There are generally at three teams of boys and two teams of girlsand  trials are held for each age group at different times. We deliver a pre-representative development program called Rep-Ready, designed to prepare athletes for upcoming representative trials. Trial dates vary across age groups, so please refer to the Events Calendar on our website for specific details.

Participating in representative basketball requires players to commit to attending two training sessions per week and attending North Queensland regional tournaments, the North Queensland Junior Basketball Competition (NQJBC). This involves a tournament in Mackay, Townsville and at home.
