The Australian Boomerangs have confirmed the roster heading to the VIBF 3×3 World Cup to be hosted in Thailand from 1 – 5 November.
A substitution has also been made in the coaching ranks with Ryan Holloway unavailable for the upcoming 3×3 World Cup. Chloe Tugliach will come in to cover the Head Coach position and Development coach Adrian Carfora will operate as Assistant Coach.
“We’ve had a strong preparation period, and I’m proud of where this group has landed heading into Thailand,” says Tugliach.
“We’ve got some great continuity from our gold medal-winning campaign, with athletes including 3×3 MVP Jack Innella and All-Star 5 recipient Dylan Cheyne returning to the group,”
“We’ve also got Pat Getson and TJ Leifi set to make their Boomerangs debuts, while Frazer Dawber and Brayden Cowell return to the Boomerangs to tackle the 3×3 world for the first time.”

“I’m extremely proud to be leading this group and really looking forward to seeing how they compete against the rest of the world,” added Tugliach.
“We know the competition in Thailand will be strong, but this group set the bar high for ourselves last year, and we want to keep pushing it higher.”
