Anticipation is high as the north’s premier men’s Basketball competition tips off again with games sure to leave fans on the edge of their seats. It will be tough to build on the success and intensity of last season, but with Basketball bragging rights for an entire region on the line once again, there’s no doubt the players of the seven competing clubs will be putting their bodies on the line and giving it their all. All-Stars, Bulldogs, Mulgrave Magic, Phoenix, Redlynch, Saints and Timberwolves will once again do battle over 14-regular season rounds. The top four clubs will then advance into a three-round elimination final series, with the victor earning the right to be crowned 2011 VIBE FNQ Super League Champions. This year will easily be the most exciting season we have seen with close to 70 of the region’s top ‘hoopers’ doing battle on the hardwood each Sunday at the Bendigo Bank Basketball Centre. Besides local stars like Deba George, Curt Ahwang, Rowan Gray, Gary Boodnikoff, Gausa Arnold, Kane Oakley and James ‘Billy’ Comino, this season will also see a number of international players from the U.S.A, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and France all step on the Fish Tank floor looking to prove themselves. I would like to extend a special thanks to new naming rights sponsor ‘VIBE Bar’ and major sponsor ‘Hobbs Financial’ for both coming on-board to add to professionalism of the league. Overall the 2010-11 VIBE F.N.Q Super League is shaping as the most successful season to date and easily one of the most intense sporting competitions in the FNQ region. Make sure you get to a game! Joel Khalu Commissioner VIBE FNQ Super League 4 JOIN THE PLAYERS AT VIBE BAR EVERY SUNDAY FOR THE OFFICIAL POST GAME PARTY OF THE VIBE FNQ SUPER LEAGUE 2-4-1 GOURMET BURGERS FROM 5PM – 7PM DOUBLE THE VIBE FROM 8PM - MIDNIGHT 5 2010/11 Season Preview All Stars MAJOR SPONSOR N/A 2009-10 FINISH 7th RETURNING Michael Cresswell, Michael Paiwan, Danny Nielson, Corey Whitaker, Max Duffy PLAYERS GAINED Bryce Cummings (USA) Denzel Philpot (Bulldogs) Laurence Hobson (Bulldog) Ladell Nakachi, Kailou George (Redlynch), Keegan Bussell PLAYERS LOST Aaron Bin Tahal (Redlynch) Sam Magill, Elijah Raymond, Brett Stanley, Shannon Roberts RESTRICTED None 2010-11 COACH Hassan Bin Tahal (2nd Season) SEASON PREVIEW All-Stars struggled through last Super League season and were the only team that was unable to register a single win. This season looks optimistic however with the signing of shooting guard Bryce Cummings direct from Wisconsin, USA. Retuning small forward Michael Paiwan (21.5ppg) will also need to put up big numbers if the team wants to taste success. With the departure of Aaron Bin Tahal (7.9ppg) to Redlynch, look for Kailou George (5.4ppg) to increase his scoring output at the point guard position. With some leadership from veteran Michael Cresswell (16.0ppg) the All-Stars could definitely surprise a few teams this season. 2010-11 PREDICTION 6th overall at the end of the regular season. 6 Bulldogs MAJOR SPONSOR: LORDS FINANCIAL 2009-10 FINISH: 6th RETURNING: Brodie Fry-Simmons, Jason Osborne, Michael Demertze, Brendon Kruger, Luke Ellwood PLAYERS GAINED: Shane Storti, Matt Martin, Chris Remedio, Patrick Hawash, Daniel Majer, Tom Ford, Zane McClosky PLAYERS LOST: Aaron Schulze (Timberwolves), Denzel Philpot (All-Stars), Laurence Hobson (All-Stars) RESTRICTED: None 2010-11 COACH: Brad Burdon (3rd Season) SEASON PREVIEW: The fate of the Bulldogs this season rests with their returning ‘BIG 3’ of Michael Demertze (18.0ppg), Jason Osborne (7.8ppg) and Luke Ellwood (7.0ppg). If these three QLD Junior representatives can find their confidence and rhythm early on the Bulldogs just might be able to sneak out some wins this season. The loss of floor general Aaron Schulze (10.2ppg) will leave a hole at the point but look for Brendan Kruger (3.8ppg) to step up and run the show. If Demertze has another breakout season the 16-year old could become the youngest player ever to lead the Super League in scoring. 2010-11 PREDICTION: 7th overall at the end of the regular season. 7 Mulgrave Magic MAJOR SPONSOR: N/A 2009-10 FINISH: 5th RETURNING: Jeff Cotter, Patrick Donald, Nick Howton, Craig Fairly, Kris Johnstone, Dariush Mirshafiei, Edgar Randolph PLAYERS GAINED: Andrew Clarke, Duncan Watts, Charles Opio (Overseas), Matt Smith (Saints) Murray Smith (NSW) PLAYERS LOST: Nathan Selsby (Saints), Ryan Lange (Brisbane), Kevin Shephard RESTRICTED: None 2010-11 COACH: Jeff Cotter (1st Season) SEASON PREVIEW: Athletic swingman Charles Opio returns to boost the Magic after a year travelling overseas. The former Super League Most Valuable Player will need to have another huge season if the Magic are to find success. Another positive for the club is the off- season signing of former Cairns Taipans NBL player Andrew Clarke. The veteran small forward will be difficult to stop with his ability to play inside and out. Returning Captain Jeff Cotter (15.0ppg) will once again direct his troops around the floor and big- man Patrick Donald (12.2ppg) will be ‘Mr. Reliable’ inside the paint. With a number of solid

    Jazz to host NBL’s Sydney Kings in Preseason Opener Utah to host Australian team in first game inside the newly renovated Vivint Smart Home Arena on Oct. 2 SALT LAKE CITY (July 31, 2017) – The National Basketball Association (NBA) and the National Basketball League (NBL) announced today the Utah Jazz will host the Sydney Kings on Oct. 2 at Vivint Smart Home Arena, marking the first time that NBL teams will travel to the U.S. to play against NBA Teams. “The Jazz are the most internationally diverse team in the NBA, including two players from Australia,” said Utah Jazz President Steve Starks. “Our franchise is excited to host an NBL team from Sydney in the first game played at our newly remodeled Vivint Smart Home Arena.” Joe Ingles and Danté Exum are the two current Aussies on the Jazz, after a record-tying eight Australian players appeared on 2016-17 opening night NBA rosters. Ingles began his professional career with the South Dragons of the NBL (2006-09) at the age of 18, earning 2006-07 NBL Rookie of the Year and winning an NBL championship in 2008-09. “This is massive for Australian basketball and an exciting opportunity for NBA and NBL players to compete together on the same floor,” said Ingles. “As an Aussie who began my career in the NBL and now entering my fourth season with Utah, I am very proud of the growth of the game in my home country and can’t wait for the Jazz and Salt Lake City to play host to Sydney this fall.” A native of Happy Valley, South Australia, Ingles re-signed with the Jazz to a multi-year contract on July 25.
