Bendigonians have been urged to throw their support behind the Bendigo Braves basketball team as they do battle for the national title this weekend.
Member for Northern Victoria Region Damian Drum said the Braves would meet Nunawading at Dandenong Stadium this Saturday.
“I would really encourage people to go and support them – it will be a terrific game,” Mr Drum said.
“After losing the semi-final at home against Knox, the Braves won the quarter final against Kilsyth.
“This gave them the right to play Knox in the grand final, and they came away with an 81 – 70 victory and the conference title.
“Now they meet Dandenong in a bid to snare the national title. This would be a sensational effort if they could win this as well.”
Braves coach Ben Harvey said the team was in good form and looking forward to Saturday.
“This will be the two best teams in the two conferences, so it will be a great game,” he said.
The game starts at 3pm at Dandenong Stadium.
