Hills Basketball is proud to announce that our 2024 NBL1 Men`s roster will include Ishmael Sanders.
Ish comes to Hills Hornets with an abundance of experience and success in the Big V League, winning multiple league MVP awards, leading scoring titles and a coming away with a championship in 2019. As the MVP of the league in 2023, Ish averaged 28.5 points per game for the Sunbury Jets and was a leader on the court.
Now as a Hornet, Ish is an absolute critical piece of the puzzle as we look to build on last year’s finals appearance. Coach Reece Potter says "his experience, leadership and skillset will add a lot to our team on the court and I have no doubt he will be one of the top players this coming season in NBL1 East. In addition, his high character and ability to influence the broader Hills community off the court will make him a great asset to the Association. Looking forward to a big season ahead!"

Hills Basketball is proud to announce Jamie Munro as our newest signing for the Hills Hornets NBL1 Men in 2024.
Jamie is a Hornets Junior that has risen to the challenge of Senior basketball in a big way. Through his hard work and dedication to refining his skills, Jamie became a dominant and vital player in the Youth League Men 1 last year.
Coach Reece Potter has said "Jamie has one of the highest ceilings as a player I have ever seen. Standing above 200cm tall, with guard skills, he has a very bright future ahead in the Hills NBL1 Men program. His length and versatility will make him a solid contributor on the defensive end; meanwhile his diverse offensive skill set will make him a tough player for opponents to stop. Another YL1 player making the jump up into 2024, I am pumped to see Jamie step up into an important role for the NBL1 side this season."
