A new season is on the horizon! Please read the important information below regarding the Summer 2023/24 season.
A big change has been made to the Beavers game payment policy for the Summer season. At a recent Beavers meeting, it was decided that the club would move to a ‘per season’ payment system (similar to other domestic basketball clubs). There will no longer be game day payments. This change has been made due to a change of policy by the Bendigo Basketball Association.
For the 2023/24 summer season, players will need to pay a one off $150 payment to cover summer season games. This payment is in addition to the $20 club fee paid when registering to your team.
From the Winter 2024 season, the game fee will be added to the club fee and payable upon registration/linking to your team.
We understand that this is quite a big change and a substantial financial outlay at the beginning of the season. We are working on payment options and ask that you discuss with your team manager or email secretary@beaversbasketball.com.au or admin@beaversbasketball.com.au if you need assistance.
We also ask that all coaches and team managers please link to their teams as soon as possible to help us communicate with each team while we make this change.
As the domestic basketball year comes to a close, Beavers Basketball Club would like to wish all of our Bendigo basketball family a very Merry Christmas and a safe, happy and prosperous new year!
We look forward to seeing everyone back on court in ’23 for another fabulous year of Bendigo Basketball Association domestic basketball!
Thanks to all who volunteered to attend the Beavers Basketball Club fundraising BBQ on Saturday at Bunnings Kangaroo Flat.
A crisp, July winter’s morning didn’t deter the DIY crowd, with the till constantly ticking over. Profits for the day exceeding $900! A great effort! Many thanks to the loyal BBQ crew on hand once again to flip the snags and represent the Beavers club!
Beavers Basketball Club swapped basketballs and singlets for tongs and aprons at a recent club fundraiser at Bunnings Warehouse, Kangaroo Flat.
Thanks to all who helped to make the day a success!
We are greatly appreciative of everyone’s help and also the generous support of local business. Please read the below letter, sent to Bakers Delight at Bendigo Marketplace.
To:- Bakers Delight – Bendigo Marketplace 13th May 2021
On behalf of the Beavers Basketball Club may I extend our Club’s most sincere appreciation and thanks to yourself and your staff for your assistance in providing your bread for our most recent Fundraiser held on the 1st May.
The Sausage Sizzle was an outstanding success, our club members volunteered their time during the day and the whole event was a great experience.
Once again I thank you and your staff for your contribution in helping foster junior sport in Bendigo and to assist the Beavers Basketball Club in developing young children to enjoy and play our sport.
Regards

Club Secretary
Bendigo Basketball is back!
Starting Monday, the domestic competition returns to Bendigo Stadium! As games begin, there are a number of procedures that ALL players, parents, coaches and team managers need to be aware of.
ALL PLAYERS NEED TO BE REGISTERED TO THEIR TEAM. If they are not registered, they will not be allowed on court. Coaches or team managers should have distributed Play HQ links to all teams. Please check with them if you haven’t received a link.
All teams need to appoint a team manager. Team managers and coaches also need to register via Play HQ and link themselves to their team (same process as a player, there is no cost to do this).
Entry to the stadium has changed. Teams must wait outside the main stadium entrance and enter 10 minutes before game time. A QR scan is needed as you enter to record your details – this can be done using the camera app on your smart phone. Click here for a short video explanation.
Entry to the courts has been divided into three ‘zones’ Depending on what court you’re playing on, you will need to enter via the right door. Click here for a link to court entry.
NO BASKETBALLS to be brought into the stadium and only one spectator per player. The doors will also be locked after the game start time, so don’t be late!
At game end, please leave the stadium immediately. Bio safety officers will need to clean each court before the next game begins.
Stadium staff have been working extremely hard, under stressful circumstances, to get basketball going again. It’s up to US to make it work by following the procedures above and taking all the necessary precautions. The alternative is no basketball… so while it’s not ideal, let’s give it our best and get back to the game we all love!
Go Beavers!
Hello all!
Just a note to bring you up to date, the BBA is planning to begin Junior Basketball on Monday 13th July (the start of term 3).
* Beavers have entered all the club teams that have enough players and plan to play in the reduced Winter Season.
* As this stage the BBA does not want clubs to register players until they have the draw ready, possible later next week. When that is prepared they will ask clubs to get their teams to register their players, they will then go straight onto the Stadium Scoring system, if this does not work we may have a paper scoresheet for a little while.
* I will send all the Coaches/Managers their team link next week and this can be sent on to all the players to register themselves into their team in the new PlayHQ system. This is a new database replacing Sports TG (Sporting Pulse)
* Due to the Covid-19 health issue the Stadium has been rearranged to allow the BBA to abide by the Basketball Victoria Return to Play guidelines, player entry into the stadium will be managed by Staff to ensure the numbers at the courts are adhered to. More information will be sent out over the holidays to try and educate the players and parents as to how we access the courts. (We need to make you all aware that the kids are not allowed to take their own ball into the stadium)
* These arrangements may have an effect on the Beavers Club teams that practice at the stadium, we will know if there are courts available next week after the draw is available.
* Beavers may need to find courts outside the stadium for teams to use, this will be a cost that we have not budgeted for so we will be asking for the Season Club fee to be paid during this season.
Any questions call me.
