South West Metro Basketball is proud to welcome Stephanie Bairstow back to the Pirate Ship!
- South West Junior - AIS 2011/2012 - Utah State University 2012-2014 - U18 World Championships 3x3 bronze medallist - Represented Australia in the U18 world Championships - WNBL SEQ Stars 2015/2016 - WNBL Canberra Capitals 2016/2017 - Leading 3 point percentage QBL 2017
Steph stands 6'2 and can shoot the 3 ball with the best of them in the league, she can play both inside and out... essentially she is exactly what you want out of your post players. Having this ability and versatility makes her very hard to defend and enables us to stretch the floor which I hope will make us much harder to guard in season 2018.
Having played for the pirates last year Steph has a thorough understanding of our systems and has this year been asked to take on more of a role of rebounding and playing inside and I am confident she will take this in her stride. Steph is only young and still has a lot of development to do which is somewhat scary, as she is a hell of a player now and if she continues to work hard she will continue to conquer the basketball world!
Welcome back Steph.
