2023 FIRST NATIONS ROUND
SATURDAY 27 MAY
The First Nations Round is an initiative by the NBL1 East and Basketball NSW, where players and clubs from across the country will be wearing uniforms designed by First Nations artists, while courts will pay homage to First Nations communities. A Welcome to Country or Acknowledgement of Country will be conducted before the commencement of games.
As the official First Nations Round sees us playing away, Hills Basketball have aligned with National Reconciliation Week from Sat 27 May – 3 June. National Reconciliation Week celebrates a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.
We hope you are able to be a part of this special occasion, celebrating the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
