The Southland Sharks are pleased to be able to have a role in the Southland Basketball Association’s coaching programme. This includes making themselves available to visit schools, take part in camps and clinics and support the representative programme. The players also help to support BBNZ programmes and act as mentors and role models for Southland youth.

This year Sharks Basketball is again supporting school initiatives to get Southland children to a Sharks game tanks to PLACEMAKERS
