I heard of a few u16 girls being asked to go to the AIS (COE?) in September. Not sure what for.

I know a few u16 girls have been invited to the u-19 camp. I think it's part of a trial for next COE intake, but not sure how many were invited.

No un16 girls in this mix at all. Might be for another camp but can't see the purpose of including un16s in an un19 camp.

Which un16s would be up to playing against un19s, your talking about 14/15 yr old up against 18/19 yr olds, big jump to make

The 16s invites have nothing to do with the 19s camp. 16s have been invited to trial for COE places, the 19s camp is a selection camp for Oceania.

So it's nothing to do with the un19 camp then or an Australian development camp either

Obviously one of the anonymous posters knows and is fishing to find more lol. I'm sure when the time comes for announcements they will be made, but this next camp for un19s is NOT an Australian development camp, it's a selection camp so doubt very much they will be combining with any un16s that may be there at the same time. Anonymous in the know what dates are these un16s attending?

^ I'm unsure of dates but I can 100% confirm that 3 girls I coach/have coached have received letters in the past few days inviting them to trial for COE. I assume September sometime.

Un19s is 3 days 20-23rd September, so may not be same time as I'm sure Paul gorri who is head of CofE women's and also head un19 coach would want to concentrate on each age for different reasons. Good luck to those girls I know some from nsw went up last school holidays for same reason.

The top age girls are a pretty scratchy group at best, so if some of them were invited you would assume some boys were too?

Next years crop of u16s far stronger for the girls with a few obvious future Opals.

I think the scratchy group comment was regarding girls born in 99?

Top age would be those born in 96, and to decree future opals at that age, unless they are Lauren sherfs size and ability that's a big call, how many do you see do well at un14s nationals and then after 16s you never hear about them again. I remember an un14 team one year had the whole....."these are your future opals "label put on them by BV and some in BA ....... With the exception of one very tall one not one single one of them has even ventured any further than un18s , the tall one has made a couple of Aus camps but that's it and no longer in the running for anything.

^Agree, I recall under 14 nationals for the boys a few years back, one team in particular medalled that year and now 4-5 years later only two of ten players are still considered future talent.

Most just have not grown and are lucky to crack the 6" mark, the others are playing football. Very common misconception to label 11-13 year olds as the future of basketball too early.

Especially with so many other oprtions and distractions out there these days!

Depends what you class making it is. For girls , wnbl pay chicken feed and is hardly worth the effort. For the 0.1 percent who make the big time it's certainly worth it. For boys, football is the best option unless your both driven and gifted but at least the national league pays better. Essentially put education first because your one knee injury away from alternatives.

^ absolutely correct! Getting an education cannot be stressed enough, think girls tend to be more focused in that area than a lot of the boys as boys seem to have more options and possibly opportunities to make a success in sport.
However there is some very good money to be made for women in basketball these days compared to say 20 even 10 years ago. Some wnbl teams pay there top 7 players the equivilant of a salary, with the big names making much much more. Europe though is the place for women to get paid, but they need to hit the higher levels either here or at a first tier div1 in America to get the open door into Europe.

But those who label these un14and16 kids as the next big thing are jumping the gun way to early, 95% of them never get to these elite levels. And often those kids who get overlooked at the un14/16 age groups develop better by the time they are UN18 and overtake the so called superstars, that's in both boys and girls.

Yes, scratchy group was for 99 born, obviously too complicated for some to follow.
