Summer Teams 2021
Finally the return of basketball is close & we look to resume games on the week of Nov 30. We are expecting 3 games to take us to Christmas with games finished by Dec 19 before returning in the new year possible late Jan, with a minimum of 11 more weeks (inc finals).
With the challenges we are still facing we have been unable to have try outs in which would usually be one of our busiest times of the year. This year we had to select teams on what we know, based on coaches feedback & previous experience. This has also meant that new players we are simply unsure of & had to start them in a lower division.
So….. We know we will get some kids wrong this season. The teams kids are in now will change come winter season. We have worked hard & tried our best. Our focus for this up coming season is to just get back out there on the courts & have fun. If you feel your child is in the wrong division we are truly sorry. We suggest they go out there enjoy themselves & show us what they are capable of by working with their team & giving 100% every week.
Below are the junior teams for our Summer 21 season for all ages under 18 & below. We hope to have our older teams finalised mid next week. To confirm your spot please register at PlayHQ & pay your fees by 5pm Friday 27th November. Failure to do so will mean we cannot add you to the computer for stadium scoring & you will not be able to take the court

Uniform Day
There will be a uniform day Saturday Nov 28. Details are yet to be confirmed as we are awaiting the State Gov update Sunday to see what options we have for venues & capacity. More details to come early next week,
Thank you all for your patience & understanding. We simply can’t wait to see the kids back on the court & having fun.
