Well done to Illaria Giuffrida who represented Northern Suburbs Basketball Association (Norths) at the Nunawading Spectres Tournament in Melbourne over the June Long Weekend.
The Nunawading Spectres Tournament is an annual event and is the largest tournament in Australia with representative teams competing from all over Australia.
