ABOUT VYC

The VYC serves as a pathway for our Junior Cobras players to move into the Cobras NBL1 program, with many also securing basketball scholarships to play at the collegiate level in the United States.

Kilsyth has long been a powerhouse of the VYC, with bith our Men and Women winning the 2025 state championship, and the Men’s team recording seven grand final appearances over the past decade.

Over 85% of our 2025 VYC players came through our Junior Domestic and Junior Cobra programs, highlighting the strength of the Cobra pathway.
