Melbourne United Dec 4
On the 19th November some of the Lara giants headed to Hisense Arena to watch our NBL friends Melbourne United. Following that, our group was lucky enough to be invited back for an “oncourt experience” and complimentary tickets for 25 kids by Melbourne United prior to their game on Monday 4th December against Illawarra Hawks.
We had some very excited kids who got to stand courtside and watch their idols warm up. They then went on the court pre-game for a skills clinic led by former Melbourne Tigers player Warrick Giddey. The kids did some balls skills, lay ups, jump shots and a mini practice match. At the end, a few even got to high 5 some of their favorite players including Chris Goulding, Casey Prather & Kyle Adnam. A big thankyou to Melbourne United for giving the kids this opportunity. A great night was had by all.
