Join Caribbean Park in supporting the Deakin Melbourne Boomers. The Boomers are one of eight teams in the Women’s National Basketball League (WNBL) and play their games right here on our doorstep, at the State Basketball Centre.

Get up close and personal with superstars Cayla George, Ezi Magbegor and Maddie Garrick by going along to a game or getting your hands on a 4-game membership.

The Boomers currently have a special offer of buy 1 get 1 free on their 4-game membership so now’s the time to get on board!

Here are ten good reasons why you should come to watch the Boomers:

  1. The State Basketball Centre is super easy to get to and has ample FREE parking
  2. Deakin Melbourne Boomers have a jumping castle that’s a basketball court for the kids to play in. It’s seriously awesome
  3. Deakin Melbourne Boomers have a two-person basketball shooting game (thanks to their friends at LightFM) that the kids (and big kids) can have a go on
  4. Deakin Melbourne Boomers offer ‘fan mail’– a place where kids can write letters to the Boomers athletes, and pop them in their mailbox. They pass on all of these letters to the players
  5. Deakin Melbourne Boomers give away Bertocchi hams during the game. Yes, you heard it right, Bertocchi hams. Who doesn’t love a free ham!
  6. If the Deakin Melbourne Boomers win, you win! Thanks to the Pancake Parlour, this season for every home game we win, anyone who attended the game can go to Pancake Parlour for a free short stack! Full disclosure, we’ve already  tested this (the pancakes are sensational!)
  7. Deakin Melbourne Boomers memberships and ticket prices are far less than the NBL, making it a really affordable day or night out for your family
  8. Deakin Melbourne Boomers athletes stay on the court for up to 45 minutes after the game signing autographs and taking photos with every last person who wants one
  9. You’d be supporting women in sport, the Boomers athletes, and the WNBL
  10. Deakin Melbourne Boomers athletes are incredible role models for kids and adults alike (read their article about it here).
