Horsham under-16 boys defeated Mt Gambier in their grand final, 48-24.

Horsham had four wins and one loss for the tournament.

It finished second behind Mt Gambier on the division one ladder.

Horsham under-16 boys coach Damien Kilpatrick said the Hornets learned from their round robin loss to Mt Gambier.

"Daniel Souter had a job to do in the grand final. In the round robin match Mt Gambier beat us and one of their players plays state for South Australia and he was the difference," Kilpatrick said.

"Dan played on him in the grand final, shut him down and kept him to five points.

"Darcy Tucker had another big weekend and Jayden Kuhne played outstanding in the grand final."

The win continued the side's strong run of form.

It won Mildura's tournament in November and was runner-up in Swan Hill.

"We have only had two training runs since Christmas and went into the tournament underdone and our second best player Ben Lakin was out with a broken thumb," Kilpatrick said.

Kilpatrick said the team would use a tournament in Portland on February 11 and 12 to fine tune its game ahead of the under-16 state championships on February 26 and 27.

Kilpatrick said Lakin was expected to play in the Portland competition and would be a handy inclusion.

"He plays anywhere. If I need him to go inside, he goes inside. If he needs to play point guard, he plays point guard for me," Kilpatrick said.

"He is the perfect player for me - he's a nice height but also has good ball handling skills."

Horsham under-12 girls coach Tracee McAuliffe said her side won its five games and scored a two-point win against Colac in the grand final.

Nekaela Butler, Jordie McAuliffe, Hayley Pope, Molly Brilliant, Georgie Carberry and Caitlin Devlin made up the team.

"It was fantastic. I went away thinking we might win a couple of games because we'd only had one tournament beforehand and they won every game," McAuliffe said. "We only had six players, there was no air-conditioning and it was 37 degrees. They ran and ran. They were very good."

McAuliffe said the girls' next challenge would be the Future Stars tournament in Shepparton from March 31 to April 2.
