The Australian Junior Championships (AJC) bring all states together for competition from U14’s through to U20’s, with six separate tournaments in total rotated throughout the country each year.
The AJCs provide young basketballers with the opportunity to play in an elite tournament representing their club, school or state on the national stage.
An important stepping stone in the career of junior players, the AJCs have produced some of Australian basketball’s biggest names, including Lauren Jackson, Elizabeth Cambage, Patty Mills and Andrew Bogut.
Basketball Australia has allocated the State and Territory locations for the 2016 AJCs and is now inviting Basketball Associations affiliated with one of BA’s members to bid to host these Championships.
