The Chisholm Catholic
College Basketball Academy is a program designed to build and breed a culture
based on commitment, professionalism and work ethic. Players are held to a high
standard and are encouraged to excel both on and off the court; when players become
part of this culture, a culture of winning comes along with it.
The SEDA Basketball
program is led by Mr Zac Dunfee, who has been playing the sport for over 18
years at club, Division 1 Rep, Regional and State levels. After playing
specialised Basketball Academy in the US and Div 1 College Basketball in
Canada, he has returned to Australia to continue a coaching career of over
eight years, including school, club and representative teams.
The Basketball program
takes a holistic approach to the development of the students, pushing them
academically, as well as providing them with sport specific information such as
correct nutrition, recovery, resilience and injury prevention.
The goal of the
Basketball Academy is not just to win games, competitions and championships,
but to prepare students to have a successful life outside of school – using the education, skills and other
attributes learned through basketball –
in whatever path they choose.
The SEDA Basketball teams
participate in a range of competitions, including:
- Pacific District Rivers Championship Days
- Metro & Gold Coast Finals
- Champion Schools of Queensland
- The Gold Coast Invitational
- National Championships
