Pioneers brace themselves as Winter is coming

The OneFortyOne Mount Gambier Pioneers have received another boost with promising emerging player Georgia Winter committing for the 2022 NBL1 South Season.

Winter is a former Millicent Magic Junior who currently lives in Penola and plays for the Mount Gambier Lakers in the Country Basketball League.

She is a forward with fantastic shooting abilities and following her commitment for season 2022, she will be following in her sister Emily’s footsteps who played for the OneFortyOne Pioneers in 2019 and now plays for the Woodville Warriors in Adelaide.

OneFortyOne Pioneers head coach Matt Sutton said it was wonderful news that Winter had joined the Pioneers.

“It is great to have another local talented player commit to the group,” he said.

“Georgia has been working hard, having made the decision to make basketball a priority this year.

“Like her sister, Emily, Georgia is very coachable and we expect her to develop rapidly.”

The OneFortyOne Pioneers and the Castec Rural Pioneers will start their 2022 NBL1 South campaigns in April 2022.
