City of Ballarat Mayor, Des Hudson, said ‘ We are thrilled to host the NBL 3×3 Big Hustle National Championships for the second year in a row, cementing our position as Australia’s home of 3×3 basketball,”

“We have a strong history of hosting basketball events and with our 3×3 courts little more than one year old, it is fantastic to see them being used on such a grand scale.
