THE world’s best known basketball team is heading to Gippsland. The Harlem Globetrotters have locked in a visit to Traralgon as part of their 13-stop Australian Tour in late June-early July. The Globetrotters will bring their gravity defying, slam dunking and impossible shot-making to the Gippsland Regional Sports Stadium on Thursday, May 7. The Valley joins the likes of Adelaide, Hobart, Brisbane, Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Hobart and the Gold Coast on the itinerary. “We are so excited to bring the Harlem Globetrotters back to Australia for their Spread Game tour,” NBL commissioner Jeremy Loeliger said. “It’s been three long years since they last toured Australia and we are sure basketball fans from across the nation will come out in droves to enjoy a world class night of family friendly entertainment.” The Harlem Globetrotters have been entertaining audiences around the world for 96 years, playing more than 26,000 exhibition games in 124 countries. Tickets are available at Ticketek.

SALE United broke through for a 2-0 win against Traralgon City on Saturday night. The chance to play under lights certainly suited the Swans and in particular Isaak Jondahl. Jondahl scored both goals for the home side to deliver Sale's first victory over the Roosters since 2018. It was also the first success in the men's competition for new coach Anouk Meereboer.

FALCONS v FORTUNA

BEFORE a big Saturday night crowd Falcons had to claw back from three goals down to force a draw with over the road rivals Fortuna. The Lions took control of the game early and dominated where it was required, on the scorecard picking up vital goals to leave Falcons in their wake. At three goals down, Falcons were looking down the barrel and the ItalianAustralian Cup sliding towards Fortuna’s clutches. In fighting spirit, Falcons contested hard and eventually found their mojo to get back at Fortuna with a three goal burst that took many by surprise. At 3-3 the game was hotting up, but the ref’s whistle blew, resulting in the first draw between the crosstown rivals since 2015. It was a big night for Falcons star Nick D’Alessandro who played his 200th game for Falcons in a career stretching back to 2006. He then played away before returning in 2010 when he won the first of his four best and fairest awards. The much decorated player turned coach and transformed the club into a powerhouse outfit winning 12 trophies in his role as leader.

PEGASUS v MONASH

PEGASUS had to fight hard to stave off a persistent Monash side. The Horsemen looked the goods in the first half, but it was Monash who started like a train with two corners in the first two minutes keeping Santo Simon under pressure. The Monash bench rose as one when Ryan Harvey beat the keeper but their groans were audible as offside was flagged. Pegasus with skilful use of the ball were able to wrong foot Monash and at 11 minutes in struck the first blow when Kuku Mahmoud beat Logan Troughton with a superb drive. Monash were missing three of their major players but still matched up with Pegasus. Calab Semple and Ryan Davis were getting useful possessions. A one-two by Kuku Mahmoud to Nelson Tombra saw the Horsemen go up by two goals at the 20 minute mark of the term. Three Pegasus defenders unsure who to take a kick were upstaged by a sneaky Broden Grover, who tapped the ball into an empty goal to give the Wolves some joy. Pegasus leading 2-1 at the break went into the the second half with plenty of confidence, but Monash refused to surrender. Keeper Logan Troughton was put under pressure as Pegasus continued to put pressure on the Monash defence, but the Wolves pressed on. Monash had some good chances with two shots hitting the upright. Adam Semple had a near miss but Santo Simon was able to clear the deck. After a scramble of legs a Pegasus player was stretchered from the pitch which held up play for a few minutes. Monash were reduced to ten men when Chris Noppert was red carded after grabbing his second yellow card. Despite the Wolves' best efforts, Pegasus emerged with the three points and the 2-1 win.

EAST GIPPSLAND v NEWBOROUGH/YALLOURN

NEWBOROUGH/YALLOURN were rewarded after their big trip to Bairnsdale with a 5-2 hard fought win over the locals. It wasn’t an easy game for Newborough/ Yallourn as East Gippsland worked hard throughout. Alex Van Vliet was on form scoring a hat-trick in a dominant display up front. Tristan Donohue also had a big impact for Newborough/Yallourn, scoring a brace in their important win.

CHURCHILL v MOE

MOE could be well pleased with their 3-0 over the Rams fielding a team with some big names missing. Churchill were also missing some of their best, but still made a contest making it hard for Moe. Moe set up attacks from the middle of the park with Connor O’Hanlon in sparkling form. His teamwork with Matt Shearing saw Moe post their first goal at 10 minutes. It was to and fro as neither team could gain a clear advantage, but youngster Campbell Young provided the spark with a superb cross for Shearing's second just before half-time. Churchill had their chances in the second stanza, but wayward passing and good keeping kept the Rams scoreless. Moe’s captain Nick Fogarty ensured that the Red Devils would make it even harder for Churchill with a 25-metre goal to round out a top night.
