The Day will feature; clinics with the Swinburne Kilsyth Cobras, free mini golf, a 3 on 3 competition (with $300 cash up for grabs), autograph sessions with the Melbourne Tigers as well as the opportunity to sign up to play with a domestic Club for the Summer 2010/11 Season.
Kilsyth Basketball General Manager Grant Wallace complemented McDonald’s® Bayswater North on their community minded approach and spoke of the positive impact the Day will create.
“The McDonald’s® Community Basketball Day, with the support of McDonald’s® Bayswater North, allows Kilsyth Basketball to showcase our sport to the wider community.”
“Kilsyth Basketball is a proud member of the local community and being able to partner like minded organisations means events such as the McDonald’s® Community Basketball Day can be held.”
