All systems are go for the DUNK team as final touches are put to preparations for the inaugural 2012 Dunk Invitational.
Hosted by the University of Sunshine Coast, the tournament will take place over the weekend of January 21-22.
Six men’s teams are set to compete, comprising of entries from Hervey Bay, Sunshine Coast and Brisbane.
The tournament is the brainchild of DUNK staff who wanted to give ballers the opportunity to play in a social setting whilst being able to enjoy the laidback atmosphere of the Sunshine Coast.
First games start at 10:00am each day, with the last tipping off at 4:30pm. Referees and scorebench are provided, meaning that teams only need to turn up and play. A social event has also been organised for all event participants at the Alex Bar & Grill on the Saturday night.
Regular updates will be posted on our Facebook page as tournament play progresses.
2013 promises to be bigger and better with the Australia Day public holiday forming a long weekend, allowing for three days of competition from January 26-28. The draw will be extended to twelve teams and demand for team spots is expected to be high. Interested? Contact DUNK and we’ll put you on our list for all future notifications.
The 2012 Dunk Invitational has been officially sanctioned by Basketball Queensland.
