Deniliquin Police Aboriginal liaison officer Sean Owen said the event was a great success.
“We had a great turnout and everyone had lots of fun,” said Mr Owens.
“The evening was about getting together to play some friendly games of basketball, but more importantly to celebrate and recognise our indigenous history and culture.”
