Williamstown Cannons Basketball Club has over 400 junior players. Our players are males and females who are aged between 4 and 20 years old. The Cannon’s players make up 44 teams who play weekly games at the Altona Sports Centre in the domestic competition run by the Altona Bay Basketball Association (ABBA) and at various venues run by Westgate Basketball Association. Williamstown Cannons work with local schools to provide basketball training venues that are local and convenient for our members. We have dedicated volunteers who manage the competitions and needs of our members and our community.
