About Our Club

Our Story: From Courtside Conversations to a Thriving Club

Our basketball club began in 2007, sparked by a small group of passionate parents from Good News Lutheran College (GNLC) in Tarneit. They recognised a need for structured, community-based sports activities beyond the school’s regular programs—and so, the idea for a basketball club was born. What started as a grassroots initiative quickly gained momentum, bringing local families together and creating a space where kids could learn, play, and grow both on and off the court.

At Good News Power Basketball Club, our mission is to teach and develop the fundamentals of basketball for boys and girls, men and women — from youth to seniors — within a positive and inclusive environment that balances enjoyment with healthy competition.

We are committed to building strong character, fostering teamwork, and nurturing a deep love for the game. Our culture emphasises skill development, sportsmanship, respect, and community connection.

As we grow, we continue to expand our programs across all age groups, empowering players to thrive both on and off the court through a lifelong journey of learning, leadership, and personal growth.

At Good News Power Basketball Club, our vision extends beyond the basketball court. We strive to build a nurturing and values-driven community where players of all ages and backgrounds are supported in their growth — not just as athletes, but as individuals. We are dedicated to promoting physical and mental well-being through a holistic approach that encourages personal development, lifelong learning, and strong character. Through discipline, resilience, and respect, we aim to inspire a lifelong passion for the game while fostering an environment of joy, belonging, and purpose. Rooted in community and guided by positive values, Good News Power Basketball Club seeks to be a beacon of transformation — both in the lives of our members and within the wider basketball community.
