Bendigo Junior Classic

Happy New Year! Another festive season has come and gone! Everyone at Team Red wishes all players, coaches, parents and supporters all the very best for a positive and productive 2019!

The Bendigo Junior Classic, held over the Australia Day long weekend, is fast approaching…and we need your help! Every year, Beavers Basketball Club is responsible for managing games at Girton Stadium. Volunteers are required to help out over the 3 days to ensure games stay on time and also to sell water and drinks (with profits going back to the club).

A few hours of your time is all that is needed. If you’re able to help, please let Peter know here.

Good luck to all teams competing in the classic! Go Braves!

And don’t forget, the Bendigo Domestic Summer season will recommence at the start of February. To see when your team is next on court, click here!

BBA Basics

If you’re new to Bendigo Domestic Basketball, I’m sure you have questions. The inner workings and intricacies of the domestic basketball scene can, at times, seem confusing.

To help players, coaches and spectators understand the game, the Bendigo Basketball Association have developed a document outlining Basic BBA By-law Rules.

This document covers a variety of commonly questioned rules and regulations and is a great starting point for any new comers or a welcomed refresher for those who have been around a while. Click here to head over to the Bendigo Basketball website and check it out!
