U17 Oceania teams announced
Abbott maybe a head scratcher for you but when one of the Assistant Coaches is his rep coach then you probably know why he made it.

I don't think you can overlook any nz team anymore.
We scraped past nz in u15 oceania and they came close at u18 Asia cup last year.
Our girls smashed nz in u15 oceanias but that was not there first team. They had 7 or 8 players MIA including a few that are based in Aus.
Doesn't really matter because all the other oceania nations a still way behind and we only need to make top 2 to qualify. Asia will continue to get much harder to qualify in top 4.

"Ummm... No. These are the official players selected".
Ummm... No. This is just the Oceania team.

Why do they refer to them as "Mens and Womens" since by definition they are neither?
If they think "Boys and Girls" is belittling, then why not "Male and Female"?

Selected for Oceania, not Asia....

Don't think these will be the sides for Asia, can see a few changes and potentially a few bottom ages in the men, plus king with citizenship

How dare the boys selectors not consult Janx, Scott Butler and every member of the Sturt Basketball Club as this is outrageous!!!!

I would have had Griffin and Simons in the boys and Henderson in the girls.

Weird its not 12?? Teams look about right though.

Only 10 players again...
