Would be a fantastic standard of competition. U/20 Nationals will be decent next February if players make themselves available.

Apparently the selection criteria is that you are still at school.

I wrote this (below) for another post.

I think you need to educate yourself on the BA & State Talent pathways and talk to your local association as well. Also the process to get a US college Scholarship so you can inform the players you coach.

They don't pick names out of a hat!

---------------------------------------------------------------------
For what it is worth, some of you need to understand how the BA Talent pathway works. There are not many kisd who don;t get Talent ID'd.

The Coaching Director in each State/territory (Metro & Country), gets asked each year to identify their best prospects. To that end they contact the various Associations to nominate their best players.

They then hold talent ID/Selection camps to participate in NITP/NPP programs/camps.

From my understanding the Country kids have it tougher than the Metro kids as they do intensive weekend type camps as opposed to regular weekly intensive training sessions.

Then there is the the BA Centre of Excellence. Again BA contact Coaching Directors of each State/Territory and names get put forward. Selectors will attend National Championships and other tournaments checking on the talent, potential (horrible word that), skills abilites, attributes, demeanor, attitude, etc of the players identified.

Then an offer of a scholarship is made. Like any selection process (Rep, State, National) they don't always get it right and there are always differences of opinion. Unfortunately that is life.

However, don't be disheartened - as an example Kyle Adnam never made a Sate Junior Team, but is playing in the NBL and went to a recent NBA workout.

Got to admire his persistence and love of the game.

So, encourage your kids to enjoy the game, work hard and persist and if you are good enough you just might make it. Like life sometimes it also helps to be in the right place at the right time.

I have a player I coached who was advised he was invited to this camp only to be told a few weeks later he was not going.

Then I hear from another player I coached as well is invited.

I would like to see a list of who the players are that are going because my first player is a far better and dar more skilled than my second player who is going.

I would get interested to know who the selection persons were.

Looks like Ncaa.com has cracked down on their coverage of March Madness this year. Just tried to launch the app and it says not available in your region??
Not sure how many games will be shown on Foxtel, hopefully Espn3 will stream all the games?? For non Foxtel customers the other option would be an anonymous proxy and then sign up to Espn player (this has been my life saver throughout the season!).
Any other options out there??
