Description
In 1964, two Perth based University basketball teammates hatched an idea that would forever change the face of W.A. basketball
Bob Symons and Peter Simper believed that for basketball to grow, a well organised junior development program that fed into a successful senior team was vital
The long term goal was to have a club that set the standard in W.A. with community involvement, effective development pathways and a genuine family atmosphere – a family that took its basketball very seriously. Titles and Grand Final appearances featured prominently over the next 47 years , with the Perth Redbacks securing back to back men’s titles in 1972/73, 1976/77 and 1989/90, sitting nicely with two in the 60’s and another in 1997, while the women’s program has seen titles in 1975, 1989 and 2000
In 51 years (and counting) the list of names produced by the Redbacks philosophy of junior development is long and impressive. Many have gone on to perform in the Australian NBL, while one became a three time NBA champion with the Chicago Bulls
The tradition begun by names like Eddie and Brad Cecins, Ian Frame, Andrew Lewis and Craig Evans, was carried over by two of the sport’s most iconic names in Andrew Vlahov and Luc Longley. A new generation saw the successful rise to the NBL of Matthew Earp, Jamie Baker and Paul Pochintesta. To this day, the tradition continues as the last three years has seen four young products of the Redbacks junior system gain Perth Wildcats selection in Joel Wagner, Jarrad Prior, Michael Vigor and Robert Cassir
51 years ago a seed was planted. Hard work, the commitment of countless volunteers and an unwavering dedication to junior and community development has produced a club which proudly and successfully proclaims: Family, Community, Basketball
