TEAMS FOR SUMMER 2024/25

We are pleased to announce our teams for Summer!


Please note that many hours have been spent by our dedicated volunteers to craft teams to the best of our ability to include friendship requests, player skills and the need for balanced teams formed from the number of registrations received in each age group. We thank our volunteer Age Group Coordinators for their time and efforts.


The Club reserves the right to move players within the first five weeks of the season if the Committee/Age Group Coordinator/WBA thinks that individual players have been placed in the wrong division or if we need to balance numbers within teams of the same age group.

Registrations for Summer 2024/25 are now closed. Any new requests will be waitlisted and only accepted if team numbers allow. Please email your player's details to our Club Registrar at glenirisdistrict.registrar@gmail.com.​

Please also note our Code of Conduct and Policies found on the Resources page. Our club prides itself on our good reputation within the Waverley basketball community and we trust our members will always act respectfully.

TRAINING

Training sessions are held once a week for U8 - U14 age groups. Training times and venues are determined in conjunction with court and coach availability, and will be confirmed once teams are finalised.

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 Summer season 2024/25, the age cut off is 30 April 2025. A player's age must remain under their age group for the whole season. For example, a U10 player must not turn 10 before or on 30 April 2025, otherwise they must register for the season as an U12.

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 send an email to the Club Registrar (glenirisdistrict.registrar@gmail.com) if you are requesting to play in a different age group to that which you would automatically be placed based on date of birth.  

Our U12 and U14 girls and boys teams are formed based on skill level, therefore and all players who register for these age groups must attend grading sessions. It is expected that grading sessions will be held in the weeks commencing 19th and 26th August. Confirmed dates will be emailed to all players registered in these age groups. More information on our team selection and grading procedure can be found on our Resources page.
