Junior squads from Deniliquin, Mansfield, Tatura, Shepparton and Tumut took part in the event.
The Breakers’ under-18 boys look ready to take their game to the next level, producing a clean sweep in their division with four wins from as many games.
With the format of the event altered from its usual program, a junior disco was held at the stadium after the games, aimed at providing a social event for travelling teams.
Benalla Basketball Association secretary Michelle Pastuszka said she hoped the event provided a fun day for all involved.
“In years to come the kids may not remember the basketball, but they’ll remember all the little things in between,” Pastuszka said.
Ensign photographer Brenden Paddock was courtside to capture plenty of action.
