A former Mount Gambier star, a US import and a talented local are among Albury Wodonga's latest Coles Express NBL1 East signings.
Duom Dawam had a stellar 2021 season with the Pioneers before crossing over to the Bandits ahead of the 2022 season.
Coach Haydn Kirkwood is already impressed by Dawam, even in his short time at the club.
"Since his arrival, Duom has impressed everyone, from his ability to play at both ends on the court to the way he has endeared himself to his teammates," Kirkwood said.
"I see him being a crowd favourite from the moment we start playing."
Jade McCowan returns to the Bandits after a promising start to her NBL1 career last season.
"I’m really excited to be a part of another season with Matt (Paps) and the team," she said.
"We’ve made some huge improvements over the past 12 months, so I’m really looking forward to seeing our hard work pay off with the additions of some exciting players."
Branden Jenkins signed with the Bandits prior to the 2020 season before it was cancelled, so he is excited to finally get back in Albury Wodonga colours in 2022.
Kirkwood shared that excitement, saying: "The wait is finally over for the fans to see his dynamic ability on the court."
