Gladstone Basketball - GABA

𝐅𝐃𝐏 𝐀𝐥𝐥-𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩 💪🏀

A great weekend of development and exposure for Gladstone Basketball’s 𝗛𝗮𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗠𝗰𝗗𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗮𝗹𝗹, who represented Gladstone at the annual 𝗕𝗤 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 (𝗙𝗗𝗣) 𝗔𝗹𝗹-𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗺𝗽! 👏

Hamish joined athletes from across Queensland, putting his skills into practice, experiencing the BQ style of play and continuing to develop the training habits required to progress at the next level.

As part of his preparation for the camp, Hamish committed to two additional early-morning training sessions each week, putting in the extra work to ensure he was ready for the opportunity

Gladstone Basketball High Performance Coaching Director 𝗥𝗮𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿 also attended the camp as part of the coaching group said “𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗛𝗮𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵-𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝗺𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗤𝘂𝗲𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱’𝘀 𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲𝘀”.

Hamish’s commitment to putting in the extra work is a great example of the attitude and habits needed to continue developing as a player.

Well done Hamish on a great weekend.
