ATHLETES NAMED FOR JAN 2015 AUST DEVELOPMENT CAMP

ATHLETES NAMED FOR JAN 2015 AUST DEVELOPMENT CAMP

54 of the nation’s most talented young players will come together at the Basketball Australia National Centre of Excellence in Canberra in January for the 2015 BA Australian Development Camp.

A vital component in the identification and development of future Australian Basketball stars, the Australian Development Camp allows Basketball Australia to see some of the country’s top young prospects exposed to elite-level development programs for the first time.

The camp will see both our wheelchair and able-bodied athletes continue to develop the necessary skills for international competition, with the ultimate goal of national team selection.

Through the years, some of Australia’s biggest stars have been uncovered at the ADC, including Jayco Opals stars Lauren Jackson, Penny Taylor, Jenni Screen and, more recently, rising star Stephanie Talbot.

Airbnb Boomers stars Patty Mills, Andrew Bogut, Brad Newley and Dante Exum also got their break through the ADC program.

The summer 2015 edition of the ADC will take place over five days from 19-23 January and will be run by Boomers Head Coach Andrej Lemanis, Opals Head Coach Brendan Joyce and Rollers Head Coach Ben Ettridge.

Lemanis, Joyce and Ettridge will be supported by National Shooting Coach and Talent Identification Manager Brad Davidson, BA Centre of Excellence Coaches and a selection of coaches from across Australia.
