Breakers Academy Revived for Future Stars | Auckland News
Description
The Breakers Academy is back after a six-year hiatus, launching with 20 elite Auckland high school athletes to cultivate future stars—even if they’re years from professional play. Spearheaded by owner Marc Mitchell and led by top-tier coaches including former Spurs standout Josiah Maama, the program blends elite training, life skills, and national development goals. Designed to uplift basketball across New Zealand and feed future Tall Blacks and Tall Ferns, this isn’t just about filling roster spots—it’s about building a legacy. Women’s academy plans are already in motion, with ambitions to expand into the NBL and overseas competitions.
