Hi Folks,

Hope you have been enjoying some great Summer-like weather. We have just completed our 1st Contact Camp which brings together all of our returning players and our incoming recruits for a quick training and socializing weekend. It was a great success and has given us a glimpse of how exciting our team is going to be this fall.

Highlighting our recruiting class is:
Marianne Alarie from Sudbury, Maddie Morris from Seeley’s Bay, and Lauryn Friesen from St. Catharines. Press releases are being prepared and will be posted on our website (queensbasketball.net) shortly.

As mentioned in the last update, our exhibition schedule is almost set:
