Basketball New South Wales would like to congratulate and invite the following selected Country athletes to participate in the upcoming Talented Athlete Program (TAP) Camp in August this year.
The 2023 TAP trial process saw over 427 athletes trial from across the Country area.
Basketball New South Wales would also like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to the 65 volunteer network coaches that assisted in running the trials, without them, we would not have been able to hold these trials.
The athletes who have been selected will be attending a two-and-a-half-day camp with our High Performance Coaches and partake in a training camp that introduces the young pre-elite athletes into the Basketball NSW High Performance Pathway at Billbergia Sports Centre.
Please note, more information regarding the TAP Camp will be emailed to you in the next few weeks.
