This is the first year a lot of the boys have played representative basketball and they were competing in division two.
During the season the boys played 12 games, with just one loss to Illawarra. They finished first and played Illawarra on Saturday in the major semi-final.
It was close all game with the boys having a great last quarter to win by 11 points.
On Sunday they played Illawarra in the grand final and again it was a close game with the lead changing constantly throughout the match.
They eventually won by one point, with all the boys having great games to just scrape home.
The team now go on to Penrith to compete in the State Cup, which is played between the top eight teams in division two from the country leagues and Sydney.
This is a great achievement for these young boys representing Goulburn.
The team thanked Bryants and The Neate Swim School for their sponsorship.
