2026 GUB Tournament

Geelong United Basketball Koorr Koorr Ngitji Tournament

Koorr Koorr Ngitji (Coming Together)

Geelong United Basketball (GUB) is a not-for-profit organisation that aims to inspire lifelong physical activity through the sport of basketball.

GUB will once again be holding a celebration of our sport by Coming Together (Waddawurrung: Koorr Koorr Ngitji) at a festival of basketball!

Now in its fifth year, the tournament will be held from October 31-November 1, 2026 across the multiple venues that host Geelong Unitedโ€™s community games each week.

Over the course of the weekend, teams will play a minimum of four games against other VJBL clubs, country associations and community teams from across the nation.

In addition to the tournament, GUB will also be holding several development clinics and courses directed at community and club coaching, score table officials, and referees.
