Women’s National Team (CBA Southern Stars)


The women’s national selection panel selects up to twenty athletes each year to form the AIS/National squad. The athletes are the top twenty players that have the potential to play for Australia.

The AIS/National program is conducted over a twelve month period. The athletes attend a minimum of three camps per year at the COE and undergo specialist training sessions within their home state.

Individual programs are developed for each squad member by the AIS/National Women’s Head Coach in consultation with the State coaches and the athlete. The player progress is monitored via testing, Coach state visits, training diaries and communication with the athletes coaches (state and satellite) by the AIS/National Women’s Head Coach with assistance from the Australian Team support staff and relevant state coach.
