COACHES COMMENTS

We’re locked in. The bodies are healthy, the energy is high and the belief is real. This group has been putting in the work on and off the court and you can feel it. We know what’s at stake and we’re ready to make a serious run at the playoffs. Every game matters now, and The Hangar is where we draw strength. Let’s protect out house.

HALF TIME HEAVE

One shot. Four hoops. Big prizes. And a jackpot that keeps getting bigger…

$4,500

And all brought to you by Cook St. Pharmacy.

Think you’ve got the skills to score your way to $500? Step onto the court at halftime and take your shot at the Half Time Heave, our ultimate fan challenge where each basket brings a bigger reward!

Here’s how it works:

You’ve got to sink four shots in a row – miss one, and you’re out!

Layup – Score it, and you win a free ticket to the next Jets home game!
Free Throw – Nail it, and take home your very own Benny the Bear 🐻
Three Pointer – Knock it down and you’ll score a Jets t-shirt 💚
Half Court Shot – Hit this and you WIN $500 cash! 💸

BUT here’s the kicker… If no one makes all four shots, the $500 rolls over to the next home game. That means the pot gets bigger every week — up to $5,000 by the end of the season!

So start practising your heave. One lucky fan, one crazy shot, and maybe a whole lot of cash.

Sky Broadband Rapid League

Our Rapid League squad has found their rhythm, picking up two straight wins, including a dominant performance last round against the Hawks Rapid team. Tyson made history, dropping a Rapid League record 26 points, and lifting the team to 9th place on the ladder.

These games are fast, physical, and full of energy, don’t miss the 6:00PM tip-off tonight as the next generation of Jets talent looks to keep rising
