The Mercy Junortoun Sporting Precinct (MJSP) played host to the Bendigo Basketball Junior Classic over the Australia Day Long Weekend.

With 5,000 people coming through the doors to spectate and 1,600 players, the community took full advantage of the air-conditioned sporting precinct throughout the 3-day event.

The teams participating, from Under 12s to Under 18s, came from far and wide across the state.

Earlier in January we hosted the Northern Rivers Juniors Cricket Country Week and, throughout the school holidays, we hosted the Kelly Sports School Holiday Program.
