Are you excited about the upcoming ASC camps during the September/October school holidays? Well we are too! So, to add to the excitement, we thought we’d share the names of some of the ASC Heroes attending our camps around Australia… We are pleased to welcome back many long-serving ASC coaches, as well as some fresh new faces. We look forward to having everyone on board, and thank the coaches for the time and effort they put in to provide great coaching at our camps.

And we can now confirm that former NBL champion, Stephen Hoare, will be on hand to run the program at the Canterbury Basketball Camp. Stephen is one of the most decorated players the NBL has seen, winning two NBL Championships as a starter with the Melbourne Tigers in 2006 and 2008, with two more grand final appearances in 2007 and 2009. Stephen is a two-time winner of the NBL Sixth Man of the Year award (for best player starting off the bench) and an NBL All-Star in 2004-2005. Great to have you on board, Stephen!

Joining Sharni at the North Balwyn camp, and also attending the Essendon Netball Camp, is ASC favourite and Australian netballing legend, Bianca Chatfield.
