Last week, Diamond Valley Basketball Association NJBL (Northern Junior Basketball League) clubs participated in grand finals, starting with Saturday for the Boys and U10 Girls Grand Finals, and finishing on the Sunday for the remainder of the Girls.

With over 10,000 people walking through the stadium across the week, the stands were full each day with family & friends of participating teams, who kept all the courts with a fantastic atmosphere. Both winners and runners up medals were presented by Club representatives, DVBA representatives & also players from the Eagles Senior Championship program!

The DVBA would personally like to congratulate all clubs for what has been a fantastic season of basketball in all grades has been, and a massive thank you to all club delegates & coaches who helped out on all of the days across the weekend! A big thanks to Tip Top Butchers, Bakers Delight in South Morang and Greenhills Engravers for their support over the Grand Final weekend.

We look forward to seeing all teams in the upcoming Autumn season after the Christmas break! Results of Girls & Boys below:
