U16 Bruins players ‘State Champions’

A GROUP of U16 Bankstown Bruins representative players (pictured) have ended their season on a high after winning the Spalding Waratah Junior Premier League Finals and being named 2024 State Champions.

Competing against teams from across NSW, the Bruins defeated North Sydney 102-90 in the Grand Final with player Eoin Isaako (back row, third from right) even scoring nine points in the first 10-minute quarter.
The games were played in Penrith with the top eight teams in the State competing for the championship title.
The Bruins boys went undefeated winning all five games which capped off an amazing season having played 20 games with only one loss; their starting five have proved to be a force to be reckoned with.
Excited and over the moon with the win, the players want to thank coaches Spiz and Foz and the parents for such an amazing season.
“They will continue to play at a local level but will have to wait until next year to trial again for the 2025 Junior Premier League,” a spokesperson said.
“They have worked incredibly hard to reach this point which they thoroughly deserve and could not be prouder of themselves or their club.”
