JYE Moli leaves nothing on the court when he’s playing basketball.

The Carrum Downs boy, 15, loves competing and his desire to be his best is paying off with state-level selection for the third consecutive year.

Jye has been selected to represent the Victorian Metro under-16 basketball team at the Junior Championships in July.

This follows competing with a Victorian school boys team in 2015 and participating in two consecutive years for Vic Metro in the Southern Cross Challenge in Melbourne.

Jye said it was a huge honour to represent his state.

“Being chosen to represent Victoria Metro is an excellent opportunity to play in a very competitive environment,” he said.

He enjoys playing as a team member and supporting his team mates on and off the court.

His intensive training regime includes morning, evening and weekend sessions.

Jye is a 2018 Leader Local Sports Star Junior Nominee.

Local Sports Stars is supported by Sportsmart and Gold104.3.
