WNBL UPDATE:
It was a historic night as we made our WNBL debut last Wednesday night, with nearly 1200 fans in the stands to watch the action.
The result didn’t go our way, but there were plenty of positives to take out of the game as we look for that first big win of the season.
Will it happen this Thursday? Be there at the Geelong Arena to find out as we take on the Southside Flyers.
Tip off from 7pm, get your tickets here.

A big thanks to all the participating clubs, the parents who got them there, as well as the referees, staff and volunteers who made everything run so smoothly.
We look forward to seeing you all again next year.
