STATE LEAGUE EXPERIENCE

Southern Districts 1992-96 | Mount Gambier 1999

Honeyman helped the Southern Districts Spartans win their first championship in 1992 and backed it up again in 1995.

Without the playmaking of Honeyman, the Spartans may have missed out on those titles in the early 1990s, where those teams helped the club become a powerhouse in the state league competition.

Boomers: we’re not taking Patty and Bryce

At some point over the next 12 months, the Boomers are going to have to make a decision that Australian basketball has managed to avoid for almost two decades. Who exactly is this team built around now? Since 2010, that answer was simple. It was Patty Mills’ team.
