A non-fiction, researched history book about the origins, beginnings, development and progress of the game of basketball in Cairns, Queensland, Australia - from 1957 until now.

​

This has been a massive project which was comprised from over 80+ interviews and resources of both primary and secondary sources of qualitative and quantitative data researched with the unwaivering support from the basketball community across the entire history of the sport not only at Cairns, but the wider Cairns region.

​

From the Mormon beginnings, to the Golden Era of the 90s, Kuiyam Pride, Mulgrave Coastal Basketball, Tablelands and regional basketball, and the birth, death and reincarnation of the only national league team in the city, this history book has it all - directly from those involved in developing not only a sport, but the community of Cairns.
