00:00 The Orange Eagles under 14s basketball team has had an awesome season.

00:09 I think we've now played 19 games over the course of the season, won 16 including the

00:17 Western Junior League basketball competition which has qualified us for the State Cup which

00:23 is coming up this Saturday.

00:29 It's not something we've had too much experience with as an association in recent years so

00:36 this is a really big step and I think it's a great achievement for these boys at such

00:42 a young age, under 14s, to be able to have a taste of the State Cup.

00:47 It really sets us up.

00:48 Hartford's not the only time that we get to qualify for the State Cup and I'm sure as

00:53 an association we're looking to see more teams qualify for the State Cup in the future.

00:59 It's going to be a big step up for our guys.

01:03 Winning Western Junior League is a great achievement but we're now coming up against all the other

01:08 winners from the other areas including the North Eastern League, Southern League and

01:13 the semi-finalists and winners from the Metro Junior League as well.

01:18 We know the quality of play is going to be really good and quality of teams but these

01:25 guys have earned their right to be there and I can't wait to see what they can do.
