Update on trials: Please note that there has been a change to the venue for the U18 trials this coming Sunday:

University of Johannesburg, Bunting Road, Auckland Park

Furthermore, if players are unable to attend this Sunday due to a tournament or school holidays, GBA will be running a second day of trials on the weekend of 6 March 2010 (details to be confirmed). If your players intend to participate in these trials they must have proof that they could not be in attendance this coming weekend.

It is our vision to see an annual program established for the Team GBA programme that creates a greater consistency to provincial elite talent management for all age groups. Furthermore, although we have not to date secured a sponsor for this event, we are doing what we can to create the necessary resources for the U18 teams to participate in the upcoming IPTs at which national teams will be selected. We do not view the upcoming tournament as being the only highlight of the 2010 U18 program and we will be extending the U18 provincial duty this year to creating vital energy and excitement for the sport at grassroots development. Our value proposition is thus, that by your players participating in the 2010 U18 Gauteng teams we are developing provincial and national talent for the future through a more robust elite Gauteng basketball programme.

Yours in Basketball,

Kornelia
Gauteng Basketball Association (GBA)
