Biography

Camino commenced playing in the Women's National Basketball League (WNBL) in 2004. Since then, Camino has played for the AIS (2004/05), Townsville Fire (2006/07), Adelaide Lightning (2007/08 to 2009/10), Logan Thunder (2010/11 to 2011/12), Bendigo Spirit (2012/13), and Sydney Flames (2013/14 to current).[3][4] Camino missed the entire 2005/06 WNBL season with a serious knee injury.[4]

In season 2004/05, Camino won the WNBL Rookie of the Year Award for the most outstanding first year player.[5] Then, in 2006, Camino was awarded the Australian Institute of Sport Junior Athlete of the Year.[6] AIS Women’s Basketball head coach, Dean Kinsman said, Renae is a leader, with a fantastic work ethic who is dedicated to being the best she can be as an athlete and a person.[6]

In the 2007/08 (2008) Grand Final, Camino won the MVP award after setting a league record for an individual score with 32 points.[7] After her success in the 2008 Grand Final, Camino's career was stalled by further knee injuries.[8][9] To resurrect her career, Camino was one of the first Australian athletes to have the controversial LARS surgery in 2009.[10][11]

Camino nominated for the 2006 WNBA draft, and was selected in round 2 (pick 24 overall) by the Houston Comets, but did not play because of a knee injury.[12][13] Camino was drafted again in the 2009 dispersal draft (pick 7) by the Sacramento Monarchs, but returned to Australia without playing a WNBA game.[14]

At official FIBA events, Camino played for Australia at the 2005 World Championship for Junior Women; the 2007 FIBA Under 21 World Championship for Women, where she won a Silver medal; and the 2007 FIBA Oceania Championship for Women, where she won a Gold medal.[15] At the 2005 World Championship, Camino top scored the tournament with 173 points an average of 21.6 points per game and was named to the All-Star Five.[4][16]
