We’re so proud of our UKWB players. Over the weekend they battled hard up in Penrith, with our development players and 3rd Div players taking on some 1st and 2nd division players in other teams. They all played hard, worked as a team and left nothing on the court. Well done to the whole team!

First team power house Tom Cutts can’t wait to get stuck into Div 1 with his team, as he not only plays but also coaches them following promotion last season.

CWBA are deeply saddened to hear of the death of Keith Batty. Keith was immensely passionate about sports and, despite retiring (a couple of times), remained stoically loyal to the club. An icon in the wheelchair basketball community, he will be sorely missed.

Due to the cancellation of last week’s D2 game we made the most of having the court and played a blue v white game. Many thanks to the table officials and ref for staying on!

Day 1 of a big weekend! CWBA3 won 2 of 2 in the inspire league!

Co-coach Kelsi said “Today was a great team performance. Players stepped up to lead on court supporting the others around them. We had lots of 1sts, with first baskets scored in a game, first free throws scored, first 3 pointers scored. It was a great game to coach and im really proud of every single player.”
