REBELS TO CRUSADERS
As you may have heard, Central Coast Rebels and Central Coast Crusaders will be uniting in 2026 under one banner.
We will be one name, one team, one Cru.
A united Crusaders offers a clearer pathway for our current and future representative players from U12’s right up to NBL1. It also ensures our teams are easily recognisable by current and prospective members, as well as the growing Crusaders fanbase and remain the leading basketball association on the Coast.
This is an exciting chance to be a part of our FIRST JUNIOR CRU TEAMS in 2026!
