WEEKEND WRAP-UP | NBL1 & SENIOR LEAGUE
The final round of NBL1 has finished up for our Hornets this weekend, with the Waratah League season heating up before finals.
On Friday, our NBL1 Hornets travelled to Illawarra to take on the Hawks for their second last game of the season. The Women had a tough start that they couldn`t claw back from despite an incredible effort from the girls. Rachel McLimore left it all on the court for one of her final games before heading home to the US, finishing with 10 points & 2 rebounds. Meanwhile, the Men were determined to get the win to leave them in finals contention. With exceptional performances from all the boys, especially Chris Bryant (30 pt, 18 reb, 3 blk) and Ish Sanders (28 pt, 5 reb, 5 ast), we managed to walk away with the win.
On Saturday, our Waratah Men took on the Sutherland Sharks in a tough game at home. Kharl Carlos had an astounding 24 points, and the boys proved they`re still ready to go for the 3-peat, with just 4 games to play before finals. Meanwhile, our Youth Women 1 took on the Norths Bears, with Lucy Corke dominating from the 3 point line and finishing the game with 25 points. Our Youth Men 2 fought a tough battle against Hornsby Spiders, unfortunately unable to close the gap despite outstanding performances from Lav Banjac and Ethan Macabulos. Meanwhile, our Youth Men 1 are currently sitting 1st on the ladder and proved their dominance against Norths Bears.
For our final NBL1 game in the HIVE for 2024, our women had a tough assignment against the current 2nd place, Norths Bears. Emma Kary and Taylah Moss both had outstanding performances, but overall the girls walk away from the season incredibly proud of the team bond they`ve built. The Men were fighting for finals contention and put on a show for their final game in the HIVE. Despite their 28 point win, unfortunately an overtime win for Bankstown on Sunday put us in 9th place, just missing out on the finals.
Thank you to all who donated clothes and money for the CEO sleepout during Charity Round, which raised almost $10,000 for the homeless. Thank you all for a great season, and we can`t wait to see you back for Waratah Senior Finals!
U16 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS | HILLS HORNETS REPRESENT
The 2024 Under 16 Foot Locker National Championships finished up over the weekend and our Hornets made their mark!
A huge congratulations to both the NSW Metro Boys & Girls, who had all their hard work pay off. Our very own David Hayman, coached the NSW Metro Boys team to a Silver Medal, losing a tough battle to VIC Metro in the Grand Final. Meanwhile, Coach Danielle D`Morias and Hornets players, Caitlin Grima and Peyton Skinnner, finished strong with a win against Tasmania to secure 7th place.
The amount of work and determination that goes into these tournaments can not go unnoticed and we are so proud of our Hornets for their efforts.

CHARITY ROUND | CEO SLEEPOUT
At Hills Basketball, we put a focus on giving back to those who need it. That`s why, we`ve decided to focus our final NBL1 round of 2024 on giving back to those in need.
Each year the St Vincent de Paul Society holds a national event, the Vinnies CEO Sleepout, to raise awareness of the growing issue of homelessness. It challenges business and community leaders to sleep rough for one night and raise funds.
Our Hills Basketball CEO, Steve Burke, has participated for the last 5 years, raising almost $40,000. Steve completed the sleepout a little differently this year, after a family emergency saw him headed to Grafton late at night. He slept in his ute as he stopped in Port Macquarie, which whilst warmer than the usual experience of sleeping on cardboard on the ground, is still a sad reality for many who begin their homelessness this way. After less than 3 hours of sleep and a heap of tossing and turning, Kip the Kelpie and Steve hit the road again at 5am, with a deep appreciation for having a warm bed at home. This year, almost $10,000 has been raised already, helping Vinnies provide 76 beds and 307 meals for those who need it.
This is an incredible amount, but we`d like to extend the offer to our community to help give back what they can. To contribute, please visit the link below.

WEEKEND WRAP-UP | NBL1 & SENIOR LEAGUE
Another HUGE weekend of basketball has wrapped up for our Hornets, with the end of the season edging closer!
On Saturday, our Waratah Men travelled to Port Macquarie to take on the Dolphins and move up into 2nd on the ladder. The boys made the journey worth it, taking home a huge win. Meanwhile, our Youth Women 2 headed to Moss Vale where they continued their undefeated streak, with only 3 games to play until Finals. The Waratah Wheelchair team also remain undefeated, with just one more tournament round to play to secure their place at the top. The Youth Men 1 had a tight finish at home against the Crusaders, with our boys getting up by 3 to finish. Jack Giddens top scored on 24 points. Meanwhile, our Youth Men 2 had a definitive win against Central Coast, with Lav Banjac scoring an impressive 23 pts. Despite having control almost the entire game, our NBL1 Women lost to Central Coast Crusaders late in the 4th quarter. Emma Kary shot the lights out, with 21 points and 6 rebounds. Our NBL1 Men had a convincing win over the Crusaders, with spectacular performances from Chris Bryant and Liam Moss.
Sunday saw our NBL1 Women take on the 2023 Runner`s up and current 4th on the ladder, Manly Sea Eagles. Despite an excellent effort from our girls, with Meg Jefferson on top of her game (15 pts, 6 rebounds, 3 stl), the Manly Women are unmatched shooters. The NBL1 Men were in for a tough battle, with Manly currently sitting 3rd on the ladder to our 10th. Despite the tough loss, Chris Bryant (18pts, 7 rebounds) and Pafe Momoisea (11 pts, 3 rebounds, 2 stl) had particularly outstanding performances. Our Youth Men 1 had to back it up for a double header this weekend, but still managed to get another win against Manly. The Youth Men 2 did the same, with Lav Banjac backing it up with another 25 pts. The Youth Women 1 played a tough game against an athletic Manly side and came out with a nail-biting 3 point win.
We can`t wait to see you back in the HIVE for our FINAL NBL1 HOME GAMES on July 13! Bring your donated clothes for our Vinnies Charity bins.
