The Double Tenth Basketball Championship lit up the Ryde Community Sports Centre on 27 September, with 100 players from 18 teams joining the fourth key event in Taiwan’s National Day celebrations.
Director General David Cheng-Wei Wu and Mrs. Wu joined Ryde City Council Mayor Trenton Brown, Councillors Keanu Arya and Justin Li, MP Jordan Lane, NSW Shadow Assistant Minister for Multiculturalism, Willoughby City Councillor Michelle Chuang, Ku-ring-gai Councillor Barbara Ward, and friends to cheer on the teams.
DG Wu thanked the Double Tenth Celebration Committee, the City of Ryde, and Distinguished Citizens Society International for making the event possible, and highlighted the spirit of perseverance, teamwork, and unity should be upheld by everyone.
