Melbourne Central Basketball Association (MCBA) is proud to announce Chase Basketball as the official Community Development Partner! This exciting partnership is built on a shared commitment to delivering the best in basketball development for athletes of all ages and abilities across the Melbourne area.
For 25 years, MSAC has been the home of Chase Basketball, having seen thousands of young athletes hit the courts, build their skills and grow their love for the game at Chase’s Holiday Camps, UP Skills and Secondary School Academy programs.
In recent years, the growth of basketball in Melbourne has included the exciting formation of the MCBA. Now, with MCBA as a key partner in MSAC operations, we are thrilled to continue working together to elevate the junior basketball experience.
Looking ahead, Chase Basketball will focus on Community Camps at MSAC, designed for beginner and intermediate players looking to develop their fundamentals in a fun and supportive environment. Meanwhile, MCBA will lead the way in High-Performance programs, guiding talented young athletes on their path in elite junior basketball.
“Chase is thrilled to continue our connection with MSAC alongside our friends at MCBA. Since our start in 2000, we’ve watched the game grow in incredible ways and the rise of MCBA is another big step forward. This partnership is all about elevating the sport and providing training for the next generation of ballers, from the community level to the big stars.” – Nigel Purchase, Chase CEO and Founder
