Help Send Our Future Basketball Stars Overseas!For many young athletes in Aotearoa, the dream of representing New Zealand on the international stage comes with a significant challenge - the cost.Like many sports in New Zealand, basketball operates under a user-pays model. When a player is selected for an age-group national team, families are often responsible for covering travel and accommodation costs to attend key international tournaments.While BBNZ subsidises a portion of each athlete’s costs and covers all tournament operations, families are still left with a substantial financial burden.Introducing the BBNZ Raffle for 2025To help ease this burden, we’ve launched the BBNZ Raffle - a fun and impactful way to support our national team athletes.Here’s how it works:<ul><li>Buy a raffle ticket for $20.</li><li>Choose to support a specific athlete or an entire team (your contribution will be split evenly across the team).</li><li>100% of your ticket purchase goes directly toward that athlete’s travel costs.</li><li>You’ll also be entered into a draw to win a fantastic range of exclusive sports prizes - drawn on 1 August 2025.</li></ul>It’s a great way to get behind our future basketball stars, helping them reach the world stage while giving yourself the chance to win something amazing in return!
