Boomers vs Iran, ticket prices
The Australia Post Boomers who are currently ranked 9th in the world will take on the winners of the 2007 FIBA Asian crown in the Boomers World Challenge, which will also include games in Perth on Monday June 16 and Melbourne on Friday June 20.
The World Challenge is an important lead up series as it will fine tune the Australia Post Boomers squad for the upcoming Beijing Olympics and give the team an important insight into its Asian rivals Iran who the team will face in the pool stages at the Olympics.
The Australia Post Boomers team is expected to be close to full strength, with South Australians Brad Newley, Luke Schenscher, Jacob Holmes and Jo Ingles all expected to press for selection in the tour team.
The presence of 226cm Iran centre Jaber Rouzbahani, who can dunk the ball without leaving the ground, is sure to create strong interest from the basketball loving public.
Australian coach Brian Goorjian has already flagged the Asian champions Iran as a tough opponent in the pool round in Beijing.
