It is with great excitement that we are able to announce our teams that will suit up in Geelong United colours, representing the Association throughout the state for the the next 10 months in the 2023 VJBL program. Growing by six teams as we transition from the 2022 campaign, we are excited to two under-20s teams to bring our total up to 45 teams for 2023.
With over 500 registered athletes trialling over a two-week span, we are ecstatic to welcome 450 new and returning athletes to the VJBL fold. With the pre-season tournament right around the corner and the beginning of grading coming straight after that, it is all hands on deck as our teams prepare for a massive season on court.
We would like to thank all the coaches and volunteers who put their time into helping selections run as smoothly as possible, and to the Geelong United staff that pour in 100s of hours to prepare for the VJBL tryout and season.
