Gippsland United Basketball is the region’s leading representative basketball organisation, proudly uniting players, coaches, officials, and supporters from across the Gippsland region under one banner. Established to provide a clear and cohesive pathway for basketball development, Gippsland United brings together the strength of local associations with a shared vision for high-performance, inclusion, and regional pride.
Formed through the collaboration of key associations across Gippsland, our club represents a strategic step forward in delivering elite-level basketball opportunities for athletes from grassroots to senior levels. Gippsland United competes in both the Victorian Junior Basketball League (VJBL) and Big V competitions, ensuring local talent can progress without needing to leave the region to pursue their basketball goals.
At the heart of our club is our Strategic Plan, which guides everything we do across four key pillars:
-
Player Development: Providing access to high-quality coaching, competition, and resources that nurture individual and team growth.
-
Coach & Official Pathways: Investing in the education, support, and recognition of our coaches and referees to strengthen the game at every level.
-
Club Culture & Community: Fostering a united, inclusive, and professional environment that represents the diversity and values of Gippsland.
-
Sustainable Growth: Building strong governance, financial health, and partnerships to secure the club’s long-term success.
Our structure reflects a unified approach, with a governance model that involves key regional stakeholders and dedicated leadership through our Basketball Operations team, Director of Coaching & Development, and community volunteers.
Today, Gippsland United stands as more than just a club—it’s a movement for basketball in our region. From Pakenham to Orbost, and Phillip Island to Sale, we are committed to creating a legacy of excellence, opportunity, and unity for every Gippsland athlete.
