Junior Basketball kicks off this Wednesday, May 7. Teams have been selected and will be changed if necessary to ensure that all teams are competitive over the coming weeks.

A reduced number of children in Division C will enable a short skills session prior to their game each week - Stephen Koch has offered to do this

Children need to pay $2 every week to cover court hire. All children are asked to wear a white t-shirt and they will be supplied with a basketball top or bib in their teams colours. Teams are asked to be at the memorial hall at least 10 minutes prior to their advertised game to organise payment of their players fee and their playing shirts/bibs.

For those few players that have not paid - the registration fee of $50 is to be paid before they can take the court.

Team parents have been allocated to all teams in Division A and B. These parents can organise subs and uniforms.

All teams have been allocated officialling duties and parents and senior players are requested to take their turn - please don't leave it to the same old few all the time.

Following are the selected teams and week one of the draw:-
