TWO Seymour Blasters teams took part in the 2023 Junior Country Championships earlier this month, securing top results in a competitive field at Traralgon.
The Blasters under 16 girls had a strong run throughout the competition, reaching the division three grand final before going down by seven points to the Surfcoast Chargers for the runners-up spot.
The under 16 girls were able to carry on the momentum after last month’s Maryborough Basketball Association Junior Tournament, in which they were undefeated to finish on top.
Meanwhile, the under 16 boys cruised to a comfortable 83-48 victory over Melton Thoroughbreds to take top honours in the division four competition.
The results build on strong results in last year’s championships, where the boys finished runners-up.
