Dingo U12s TOP OF THE PACK!
*Grading round 2

🏀 U12 Dingos Orange def. LWLC Lions Aqua 11-9

What a win! Up against a bigger, more physical team, the boys showed incredible determination and never gave up!

Huge shoutout to Sebastian, Ezekiel and Kayde for battling for rebounds, Odin for his relentless defence, and Raiden for an impressive 6/8 free throws!

🏆 PLAYER OF THE PACK – COOPER!
Outstanding on both ends of the court! His passing, defensive effort and crucial late free throws helped secure the win!

Great having Max cheering from the bench too. Wishing him a speedy recovery!

So proud of the boys! 🧡🖤

🏀 U12 Dingos Black def. Venom Black 46-10

🏆 PLAYER OF THE PACK – NOAH!

What a game from Noah! Scoring 12 points, communicating confidently and making smart plays throughout!

But what really stands out is his consistency and commitment to the team. Noah shows up to every training and every game, listens, learns and gives 100% every time!

You can’t ask for much more than that! Keep doing what you’re doing, Noah! Outstanding effort! 👏🏀

🏀 U12 Dingos White def. Kangas BC 47-18

Our focus this week was man-to-man defence, and boy did the boys deliver! Incredible defensive pressure, fantastic teamwork and some brilliant passing saw the boys come away with a great win!

🏆 PLAYER OF THE PACK – ELI!

What an effort from Eli! Up against his old team, he stepped up with some outstanding rebounding and scoring! Playing a year above his age group, Eli continues to prove he belongs with the big boys, making his presence felt under the basket!

Awesome effort, Eli! Keep it up! 👏🏀

GO DINGOS! 🧡🖤

🍑 DINGOS U12 PEACH 🍑

Dingos 13 def. SCBC Stars 9

Our Peach Dingos secured their first win of the season!

The girls hustled hard, fought for every ball and weren’t afraid to dive on the loose ones. Their defence was incredible, and there was lots of passing and teamwork on display. We couldn’t be prouder of how they’re coming together as a team.

⭐️ Top of the Pack - GRACE

Grace was everywhere on the court, and all with a sore ankle. An absolute powerhouse on both ends who never stopped hustling, putting pressure on the opposition and giving the SCBC Stars no time to rest. What an effort, Grace!

First win in the books, Peach girls. Here’s to many more!

🏀 DINGOS U14 ORANGE 🏀

Dingos 46 def. by Saints Pine 69

Our U14 Orange boys faced a talented Saints Pine side this week, keen to bounce back from their Round 1 loss.

Despite missing a key player away representing WA at the National Championships, Saints still had plenty of talent and gave our boys a serious challenge.

The pace was faster, the pressure was higher and the step up from U12 basketball was certainly noticeable. Saints used their height advantage to dominate the offensive boards and build a 23-point halftime lead, while our Dingos worked on implementing a more accountable full-court defence.

But the second half? A pleasure to watch! 🔥

You could forgive the boys for dropping their heads, but there’s something a little different about this team. They forgot about the height and athletic disadvantage and simply went out to compete. And they certainly put on a show.

Beau was dropping threes, Evan was daring the opposition to take him on, Cooper was pushing the pace and disrupting their defence, and Lachlan was hustling from behind, giving them nowhere to retreat.

If Saints didn’t know who these kids from U12 were before the game, they certainly did by the final buzzer!

⭐️ Top of the Pack – EVAN

Only his second game as a Dingo and already making a huge impact. Evan finished with 11 points, but it was his ability to change the pace, get his teammates running the lanes and bring relentless defensive intensity that really impressed us. He’s showing the team exactly where the bar is being set this season.

The scoreboard didn’t go our way, but that second half gave Coach Mark plenty to be excited about!

🏀 DINGOS U8 BLACK 🏀

Another OUTSTANDING win and another great display of competitive basketball from our Dingo pups!

The defence was elite, the passing was brilliant and some fantastic assists made for plenty of highlights. Every player contributed, with too many great moments to mention.

⭐️ Top of the Pack - BENJI

Thanks to some unplanned subs, poor Benji didn’t get a single rest all game. But those little legs just kept running, without a single complaint. Not only did he show incredible energy, he played selflessly and led the team in assists!

We all love a teammate like Benji. How lucky are we that he’s a Dingo! 🧡

🏀 OLD DINGOS 🏀

The Pack is growing, and this time we’re bringing out the big guns… AKA some of our awesome Dingo dads and big bros who are swapping the sidelines for the spotlight to see if they’ve got what it takes!

That’s right, Dingos have officially branched out into men’s basketball, and our Old Dingos are out here representing the Pack. 🙌

Knee braces out, shoulders taped up and a few bodies remembering what basketball feels like.

Two rounds in and the boys are already giving us plenty to cheer about. Some great plays, plenty of laughs and a whole lot of Pack spirit.

We love seeing Dingos grow beyond junior basketball, bringing more people together through the game we all love.

And while we’re at it… Dingo Brewing Company, surely there’s a collab waiting to happen here? Same name, same Pack energy but now a few Old Dingos who’d definitely appreciate a post-game refreshment. 🍻

Keep doing us proud, Old Dingos (and Toby)! We have a feeling this team is going to be VERY entertaining to watch. 😆

🏀 DINGOS U12 WHITE 🏀

Dingos 16 def. by LWLC Lion Blue 72

Ouch! That final score hurt… just a little 😂.

Our U12 White Dingos came up against a highly skilled and experienced A Grade team, and wow, did they give us a masterclass in basketball.

The opposition had incredible shooting, elite passing and some seriously impressive plays that were just too good for our boys on the day.

We knew this was going to be a tough one, but what impressed us most was how our boys responded. They played hard, stayed composed and kept pushing right until the final buzzer. No dropped heads, no tears, and at the post-game debrief, they were still smiling and in positive spirits. THAT is something to be proud of!

For a young team who are new to this level of basketball, there were still some really lovely moments out there. Glimpses of skill, teamwork and potential that have us excited for what's ahead. The scoreboard might not have reflected it, but there was plenty of heart, grit and growth on that court.

There’s a lesson here, and to borrow a little wisdom from Steph Curry, playing against teams that are too closely matched to your ability can keep you stagnant and in your comfort zone.

With the majority of our boys coming off an undefeated U10 season, our goal isn’t just to keep winning. It’s to keep growing, developing and pushing ourselves to the next level. We don’t get better by only playing teams we know we can beat. It’s when we’re challenged that we’re forced to adapt, learn and innovate.

We see playing stronger, more experienced teams as an opportunity. These are the games that challenge us to become better, not just as players and as a team, but as young men too. We’re playing the long game, and we know we’ll get there. It’s not a matter of if, but when.💪

Proud of you, Dingos White!

🏀 DINGOS U12 ORANGE vs DINGOS U12 BLACK 🏀

Dingos Orange 12 def. by Dingos Black 29

Good news is, Dingos walked away with a win! 😂

With two players missing across both teams and six boys having completed WABL trials shortly before the game, the boys had to dig deep! But both teams showed up and put on a great display of athleticism.

Dingos Black walked away with the win, with Hudson T setting the tone and scoring our first U12 points of the season! Every player went on to score, showing just how well this new team has come together.

Strong defence, great ball movement, rebounds and drives to the basket when needed. Everyone contributed and should be proud of their effort!

While it wasn't the result Dingos Orange had hoped for, the boys should be incredibly proud of how hard they competed right to the end, with some stunning plays along the way.

There was plenty to celebrate, particularly their passing, running the lanes and contesting shots. Rebounding is an area to work on, but that's all part of learning and getting better!

A huge shoutout to newcomers Ezekiel and Max, who stepped in, played like veterans and fitted right in with the team! Max in particular showed great composure, making smart plays and bringing plenty of hustle at both ends of the court.

Unfortunately, Max may have fractured his arm during the game. We're all sending him our best wishes and hoping for a speedy recovery. 🙏

And in true derby game day chaos, we only managed to snap a photo of Dingos Orange. 🤪 Sorry, Dingos Black - we’ll get you next time!

Proud of ALL our boys. Two teams, one Pack! 🧡🖤

🏀 DINGOS U8 BLACK 🏀

Dingos 12 def. Venom Black 2

Our first U8s and youngest ever team secured the club’s first win of the season. The cutest little Dingo pups, but don’t let them fool you… they came to HOOP! 🔥

With 4 players who had never played before, you honestly wouldn’t have picked it. There was dribbling, defence and shots landing! But most impressively, there were lots of high fives, high energy and all-round great teamwork. 🧡🖤

Well done, Dingos U8s, on your first game and bringing home the win. 🙌

Special mention to Venom, who really held their own in the first half. A team with amazing skill and potential, and we can’t wait to see these mini ballers develop throughout the season!

🏀 DINGOS U14 ORANGE 🏀

Dingos 45 def. by Saints Green 84

WHAT A GAME!

Our boys’ first U14 A Grade grading game was always going to be a challenge, especially when the opposition looked like they’d accidentally brought their U16 team! 😂

Despite being significantly undersized, the boys never stopped running, competing or believing. The first half didn’t reflect efforts on the scoreboard, but they came out after the break determined to play for each other - and what a final 10 minutes!

Evan was outstanding on debut, setting the standard with tough defence and some great points. Archie battled the giants on the boards, taking a few knocks but bouncing straight back up. Lachy and Toby worked tirelessly, Cooper’s passing was on fire, and Beau went absolutely Michael Jordan mode in the final 10 minutes, lifting the entire team with him. 🔥

A MASSIVE THANK YOU to Clay and Corey for stepping in and looking after the boys while Coach Mark (and Brodie) are away luxuriating in Europe. The team was in great hands, and we really appreciate you both. 👏

We may not have won on the scoreboard, but the boys showed incredible heart, character, determination and teamwork against a very strong opposition. Every player contributed, and every one of you should be proud.

One team, plenty of heart - and definitely not a team anyone will take lightly! 🧡🖤

On 3… 1, 2, 3… GO DINGOS!
