Last night Gold Coast Radio Lollipop were lucky enough to have star basketball players, Tyson Demos, Pero Cameron and Chris Goulding from the Gold Coast Blaze drop in for a visit!

The kids were prepared, busily making welcome signs and colouring in basketball’s and getting very excited about the professional players coming by. As they entered the playroom we all had to crane our necks and look upwards to greet them…these guys are tall!

The guys had a great time and got busy, painting, playing ping pong and adding to our ‘hands of fame’ posters. The paint covered hands even made their way on to an unsuspecting volunteer’s head, funny man Doug, giving him a colourful look for the rest of the evening (and doesn’t he look happy!).

It was a great night of fun and games, a big thank you to the guys for stopping in and helping to put some huge smiles on their littlest fans’ faces! A highlight was seeing little visitor Tyson interview big basketballer Tyson on the radio, lots of giggles!

Thanks guys, make sure you come back again soon in between your pre-season training. The Blaze kickoff the NBL season September 25th!
