Northern Galaxy Basketball and West Brisbane Falcons Basketball Clubs are joining forces to promote and celebrate positive outcomes through sport by holding a Positive or it’s Pointless day August 4 at Brisbane Basketball Inc.

Both clubs have fixtures scheduled against each other and club members can socialise with each other at a sausage sizzle being jointly organised by the two clubs. As part of the activities the clubs will be promoting the message of the Positive or it’s Pointless program.

“This is a great opportunity to appreciate and interact with members from another club away from the competitive arena that will allow for the positive reinforcement of sportsmanship and friendship as key elements of being involved in sporting programs,” stated Mal McGreachan, president of West Brisbane Falcons Basketball.

“With both clubs supporting the philosophy of the program it was the perfect opportunity to combine efforts and promote the positive aspects of sport,” said Andrew Fiedler, president of Galaxy Basketball. “This is a great way for members of both clubs to socialise outside of the competition of sport.”

The Positive or it’s Pointless campaign aims to reduce poor and unacceptable player, spectator and parent behaviour to make sport safe for all children. Both clubs were successful in securing funding in 2012 for the purchase of equipment.

Northern Galaxy Basketball and West Brisbane Falcons Basketball Clubs are affiliated with and play out of Brisbane Basketball Inc.
