Basketball Victoria’s High Performance staff and the Kevin Coombs Cup team coaching staff have selected the Wheelchair Basketball Squad to attend next year’s Kumon Country-Metro Challenge.
Picked from recent tryout days, wheelchair basketball athletes from both Metropolitan Melbourne and Country Victoria have earned selection for the four-day tournament in January 2022.
The final Victorian Kevin Coombs Cup team and emergencies will be selected from these 18 squad members to attend the 2022 Australian Junior Championships this April in Ballarat, Victoria.
This will be the first time Wheelchair Basketball is included in a Challenge event, highlighting the incredible work our High Performance staff and Victorian Wheelchair Basketball coaches have put in to make this happen.
The 2022 Kumon Country-Metro Challenge will be held at the State Basketball Centre, 291 George St, Wantirna South from 14-17 January 2022.
