Most training sessions are held on a Tuesday or Thursday afternoon/evening at either Waverley Basketball Stadium or Oakleigh Recreation Centre. Other venues are used when needed.

Training for U16, U18 and U20 age groups can be arranged upon request.

TEAMS, AGE GROUPS AND GRADING

Waverley Basketball competitions are separated into 2 categories:

1)  Boys Domestic competition which all boys OR mixed teams can enter, and 

2)  Girls Domestic competition which is strictly girls only.  

For the Winter season 2025, the age cut off is 31 October 2025. A player's age must remain under their age group for the whole season. For example, an U10 player must not turn 10 before or on 31 October 2025, otherwise they must register for the season as an U12.

Please note the Club has introduced a new grading and team selection policy for the 2025 Winter season. U12 and U14 players can choose to either try out for a performance team, or be placed in a development team (as we currently do for other age groups).  It is expected that performance team grading sessions will run in the first two weeks of March. Confirmed dates will be emailed to those players. More information can be found in our team selection and grading policy which is on our Resources page.

Players will be placed in teams according to their age group.  Exemptions for playing in an age group other than the one your player is eligible for must be submitted by the Club in writing to WBA for their consideration.  Requests for playing in different age groups can be made and will be considered depending on overall numbers and team allocation.  NO guarantee is given that your child can play in a different age group.  Please email the Registrar if you wish to play in a different age group to that which you would automatically be placed based on date of birth.
