Northern Rivers Elite Training & AAU Trials

North Coast Basketball will be running Elite Training Sessions in Ballina during Term 4. This will be high intensity sessions that will push players to their limits and focus on advanced skills and concepts.

We will be using the 3 sessions as our selection process for the ‘AAU Port Macquarie Basketball Blitz’ on the 24th & 25th of January 2026 in Port Macquarie as trials will be difficult to facilitate over the Xmas break.

Players can register for individual sessions or register for all 3 and receive a discount.
