In her first Aussie pod, country Vic player Jaz Shelley has circled back to regional Victoria as the first pick for inaugural WNBL team Geelong United!

She has cut her teeth in the US college system for the last 5 years mainly with Nebraska WBB as part of an exceptional era of players that have quite literally transformed women’s hoops… and we’re thrilled to have her back in Oz!

Currently playing with NBL1 Souths' Ballarat Miners alongside Coach Kennedy Kereama she’ll have her first taste of the Souths Conference Finals in coming weeks. We also get into her impressive college years which has shaped her on and off court, with a business savvy mind make no mistake her heart is set on her hometown roots and the desire to give back.

We’re grateful to get to know Jaz a little more in this episode… she made quite the splash eight years ago on the world stage as part of the historic Sapphires squad with Coach Shannon Seebohm - that won U17’s Women’s Gold in 2016 with that pivotal semi-finals game against the USA!!

Enjoy!
