The Big-V Victorian Youth Championship (VYC) is Australia’s premier Under-23 basketball competition, consisting of the top Under-23 teams from across Victoria.
The VYC serves as a pathway for our Junior Cobras players to move into the Cobras NBL1 program, with many also securing basketball scholarships to play at the collegiate level in the United States.
Kilsyth has long been a powerhouse of the VYC, with our Men’s team recording six grand final appearances over the past decade, including back-to back silver medal finishes in 2023 and 2024.
Over 85% of our 2024 VYC players came through our Junior Domestic and Junior Cobra programs, highlighting the strength of the Cobra pathway.
