Round 10 Preview
Sunday June 27 v Albury-Wodonga @ Home
“It’s good to be back”
After 3 weeks without basketball, the Sabres are looking forward to returning to the court. With the new condensed fixture there will be plenty of basketball played over the coming weeks. We hope to see all the Sabres community back enjoying the game.
SABRES v BANDITS
The Sabres are returning to a double header this weekend, playing Geelong Saturday night and Albury Sunday. We welcome our country friends to the Sabredome and look forward to an exciting match.
Emma Mahady is having a big season for the Bandits averaging 24 points a game and is closely supported by Brodie-Paige Theodore with 16 points. The Sabres are going to have to work hard to shut these two players down in particular to stop Albury getting their first win for the season.
The Sabres are aiming to start with intensity and get early defensive stops against Albury. Having only had two trainings the ladies look ready to go.

Physio Flex Out Phisio
The break has allowed players to return from injury and have a full roster ready to go. Cass Hill, Amy O’Neill and Chloe Hicks have all had great starts to the season and hope they can continue this into the second half. Rach Jarry and Katie Jewell’s leadership has been pivotal in the first four wins.
The Sabres would like to wish Jenna O’Hea all the best as she leaves the Sabres to pursue her Olympic campaign. We thank her for her joining us and the leadership she has shown whilst playing for the Sabres. We hope to see her in orange again soon!
