BWB - what's the point when best were in Spain???

I don't get the hoo hah around the BWB that was held in VIC recently when the best talent was at Worlds in Spain - even the gushing quotes about playing against the best talent in the state. I guess technically that was correct as the they may have been amongst the best talent in the state while the national teams were in Spain at worlds, but won't it be embarrassing when we serve up 2nd tier players at global BWB?

It was BWB Asia, not BWB Australia. The focus wasnt Australian kids.

A little thing called government funding. A portion had to be held in a regional area

The junior NBA wheelchair section of BWB was held in Geelong. The look on my 8 year olds face being able to participate and show NBA players how to play was priceless. It was about more than just showcasing talent.
