My name is Luca Anderson. I am a 16-year-old student-athlete from Brisbane, Australia. I have a passion for basketball and a drive to succeed both on and off the court.

As a member of the U18 Brisbane Capitals Team, which clinched the state championships in 2024 and was runner-up in 2025, and was selected for the Queensland State Team 2025 for the U18 Australian Nationals, I have honed my skills and gained valuable experience competing at a high level. My dedication to the sport was further demonstrated by receiving a Basketball Scholarship from St Joseph's Gregory Terrace in January 2023, where I proudly represented the 1stV Basketball Team as a grade nine student.

As a requirement of my scholarship, I maintain a strong focus on my grades, consistently averaging a B- across all subjects. I take pride in my academic achievements and see them as a crucial component of my overall development as a student-athlete.

What sets me apart as a candidate for your team is my unwavering work ethic, my resilience in the face of challenges, and my ability to lead by example both on and off the court. I am confident that my dedication to success, both athletically and academically, makes me a strong candidate for your collegiate program.

I am eager to bring my skills, determination, and passion for basketball to your team and contribute to its continued success. Thank you for considering my application, and I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can be a valuable asset to your program.
