Purpose:

The purpose of the tournament is primarily for development and team cohesion both on and off the court in the following areas:

1. Basketball Skills – this is an opportunity to play against some of the best players in the country. Basketball games played at this level will enhance both individual & team based skills.
2. Club Culture – we want to engage in this tournament as a club. This is an opportunity for the players to experience basketball outside of Perth with other players in the club. We believe these kinds of experiences have the prospect of creating positive lifelong memories.
