so I take it all of these tournaments are going ahead still ?
No way Qld are sending teams to SA now.
So it will just be internal Country v Metro games.
All the usual January HP tournaments are off again.
Are Tassie teams confirmed for this Adelaide "tournament"? With cases at such high levels what parent would send their child to Adelaide for a meaningless set of games against made up teams from SA?

Any results through. Where are games being played..might get down to Ulverstone to watch if not too hard to skip work for few hours.
Ulverstone is a bit far from St Clair in SA.
Hard to keep up with which non-BSA venue (being hired raising costs) BSA will use for all their activity. My bad.
It looks asthough not much talent in boys 05-06-07 age group in these 2 states.
Quite a bit of talent in girls 06-07, not so much 05.
Sa m and c boys won't be making u16 ajc finals this year imo
"Sa m and c boys won't be making u16 ajc finals this year imo"
Curious what you're using as evidence from this event to suggest SAM won't be mking U16 finals?
Because I've seen the 07/08 talent of other states.
SAM don't have any teams playing in U16 though.
I'm from sa, they ain’t making final of ajc. Some chemistry would have helped today.
How are the teams/states (including what's happening in other states) that actually have had games etc looking?
U18s probably more relevant to discussion given states will need to be selecting teams soon. The vic metro v country games would be crackers! Some of those players would have missed two years worth of ball - best they wouldn’t hold back.
Also, what’s people’s thoughts on an u20 development tournament given 20s is now after 18s - useful or would the bulk be in various NBL squads etc?
Given how depleted 20s has been over sometime and the rise of youth ball.
I'd like to see Aus follow nz with u13-u15-u17-u19 instead of the u14-u16-u18-u20.
The former just lines up better with fiba tournaments, gets the best in earlier and the older out quicker into senior basketball.
This year we have
Club
U14 09/10 athletes
AJC
U16 07/08 athletes
U18 05/06 athletes
U20 03/04 athletes - about 40% players have moved on already to nbl1, wnbl, college etc
792 - probably the most construct post on this thread!
What's stopping BA and the states moving to this age group structure?
Has NZ always had this structure, or has it been a recent change?
U18s 05/06 tournament t. To determine fiba u17 WC 2022 teams
U16s 07/08 tournament. To determine fiba u15 oceania 2022 teams
04/05 players 2022 asia u18 champs
Lots of games to be played this year
Nz just are better organised, they had streaming 3 years before we did. Tells you how crap ba people are.
According to the FIBA Website U17 FIBA WC is in July this year, whilst the u19 WC is June 2023.
07/08 athletes probably have this year and next to make their case for u19 WC - would this include 06's as well?
Nothing on Oceania juniors wise, though the Pacific games are scheduled for November 2023 - is this a junior or senior tournament?
Never understood if FIBA was 19 and under or u19 (I.e. can’t be 19 that year) - can anyone help?
05-06-07 for u17s in 2022
04-05-06 for u19s in 2023
07-08-09 for u17 in 2024
06-07-08 for u19s in 2025
09-10-11 for u17s in 2026
What has happened to the host U16 boys SA Metro in the Adelaide games? Covid?
Most teams only suiting 7 players so not sure what's happening unless players have just dropped out due to risk?

SA Metro Under 16 Boys had to pull out before started due to covid exposure
SA Metro Under 18 Boys had to pull out this morning due to covid exposure
Welcome to the new normal!!

As per #869 a couple teams in 16 and 18 boys country teams have also pulled out due to possible exposure just prior to start
Not sure on girls side but hard to imagine they haven't been effected
Good intentions, but Tasmania are regretting their decision to attend now.

#872 Maybe, but at least they are getting some games from outside their state, sure not ideal but what is at the moment, take what you can and use it effectively.
The U18 SA Metro teams have already played three games each so does this make the venue an exposure site?
Correct. Since Governments putbig business over the people they were forced to change close contact rules or half the population would be in quaratine right now.
So while the event is clearly a hotspot/close contact issue, current rules mean everything's fine.
Until the majority of players, referees and volunteers end up positive because of a couple of positive cases, at an event which has zero purpose or benefit.
How does that impact on the Tasmanian teams returning home? Plenty of risk for zero reward.
If they only played tennis instead of basketball they'd be fine

Got to wonder how the rest of the year will play out - can't see too much happening between now and end of June

Seems a bit of chat here that the AIC is pointless (don't agree by the way), but wondering why and does that mean you have the same view on the event about to start in Vic on Friday?
QLD u18 State titles are on now in the Covid Hotspot the Gold Coast. Let's see how that plays out. Might provide a guide for other events.

Just wondering if peeps think the Victorian Metro v Country challenge is a worthy event. AIC in SA gets dealt harshly for being the same format (basically)
SA basketball and Vic basketball programs have had very different past two years. The situation with COVID right now is also different. Can't be compared.
Vic event is in place of the East Coast challenge due to COVID. Totally different scenario.
What do you think the Adelaide event is in place of?
ECC, SCC and Country Cup.
but VIC's have hardly played any basketball in 2 years

Yes, it no doubt has impacted quality as well as the ability to select as there are not as many data points.
The quality was not what it should have been but selection had as much to do with it as lockdowns, there were plenty of kids there that were not at the required level and plenty sitting at home who were! It was a disappointing event.

There were a lot of players sitting at home that are of much better ability than some of those playing, BUT BasketballSA has put a lot of the players off. The list of players who chose not to bother with the High performance group would be extensive.

Seems insane that Eltham/Dandenong tourney is still scheduled to go ahead next week....seems like an assured spreading event that will jeopardise return to school and return to VJBL comp the following week for the kids who participate.
Some Associations and teams have now withdrawn off their own bat, should be called off.

God help the schoolteachers and parents when school goes back. Expect a massive spike in cases days later, while also assuming that many cases will go unreported.
Time to start panic-buying again???
So if we cancel all events, do we just go into lockdown again like the last 2 years... People in Victoria are not going to cope that.
Life is almost back to normal in Victoria, other than masks inside.
So we had approx 18,000 case today in Victoria from a population of 6,680,000... so 0.26% of the population.

It's not a question of locking down....the question for me is why would you run a tournament knowing that it will impact the real competition which starts a week later?
It exacerbates the existing risk that we will very significant numbers of forfeits when VJBL resumes the following Friday. I’m suggesting you prioritise VJBL.
"Life is almost back to normal in Victoria, other than masks inside."
Other than the Hospitals being full, ICU full, nurses/medical professionals being over run by people who don't even believe in modern medicine. Small businesses closing by the hundreds. And hundreds dying each week needlessly.
Apart from that.

No way they should cancel the tournament. Yes, it's a big tournament, but not as if individuals are going to multiple places. Less risk than most things; less risk than schools. Life needs to go on, and these kids have missed too much for these events to be cancelled.

Totally agree. Kids should be able to play, kids have missed so much due to covid. Basketball Queensland ran their state champs and yes people got covid, played at own risk. How do you know all cases were spread at the competition. People had to know if you were playing and attending it increased risk. Life must go on now and learn to live with it.
