Stars Above, Hoops Below – After School Program Launch

A new Friday after-school program is coming to the Cooktown Events Centre.

In partnership with Thoegayn Zugub, a new powerful after-school program has been delivered, combining basketball, leadership, and cultural connection for young people aged 10–17.

Running across 10 weeks in Term 2, this structured program uses sport as a vehicle to build confidence, strengthen identity, and develop leadership skills in a culturally safe and supportive environment.

Each weekly session includes:

  • A leadership “yarning circle”
  • On-court basketball skill development
  • Small-sided games with integrated life skills

📅 Fridays from 24 April – 26 June 2026
3:30pm – 5:30pm
📍 Cooktown Events Centre

⚠️ Registrations are essential
Participants must register once for the full 10-week program (no casual or weekly bookings available).
