Seahawk in Drug scandal national camp opens a belt

-

PROMISING young North Gold Coast player Tara Manumaleug­a has been included in the four-day Basketball Australia Athlete Developmen­t Camp.

Running until Thursday in Canberra, the camp features 40 male and female athletes, 17 coaches as well as the Emerging Rollers in attendance.

The ADC offers a mechanism to identify future Australian Boomers and Opals as well as assess potential scholarshi­p holders for the Centre of Excellence. BILLY Dib is confident of hosting a world title showdown against American Tevin Farmer in Sydney after a drugs controvers­y engulfed champion Kenichi Ogawa.

Japan’s Ogawa tested positive for two forms of androstane­diol (synthetic testostero­ne) after he controvers­ially defeated Farmer by split decision last month to win the IBF World super-featherwei­ght title.

Officials are now awaiting Ogawa’s B sample to return, though he has already been suspended.
