Elate on his re-association with the Sixers, Vince sad that he is looking forward to helping the team improve on last summer's semi-final appearance in the new five-team finals format.
“I'm delighted to be returning to the Sixers for BBL season nine. My family and I were made to feel very welcome at the Sixers and had a wonderful time living in Sydney. The SCG is an amazing stadium to play at and we had some great support there last season. I look forward to more of the same this season,” Vince said.
“Having lost out in the semis in BBL|08 I'm hoping we can go all the way this time around. There is a huge amount of talent in the squad and some great people at the club. I'm looking forward to contributing to what is hopefully going to be a great BBL for the Sixers,” he added.
Sixers Head coach Greg Shipperd welcomed Vince stating that the former has done well in the last season and is expected to continue in the upcoming edition as well.
“We are delighted to have secured James Vince as our second international player for the coming season. He made a huge impression within our group through his consistent performance in the vital number three position that assisted the team reaching the semi-finals,” Shipperd said.
The upcoming BBL season will commence from December 17 and Sixers will play their first match against Perth Scorchers on December 18.
