For a number of years we have struggled to attract and retain female participants. This season Wagga Basketball have put in place some incentives to try to increase participation in our sport.

​

Blazing Hoops Program (Under 10 Girls)

The aim of this program is to encourage young girls to try out basketball within a structured and fun environment. It is hoped that this program will assist in boosting future numbers for both local competition and representative programs.

​

The program will consist of 7 weeks of structured training and 7 weeks of competition. All training sessions will be programmed by the Wagga Basketball Coaching Coordinator with the assistance of identified team coaches.

​

Registration is free, but participants will need to pay the BNSW membership fee if they aren't already a member. Kids joining from Aussie Hoops are free for the first 12 months and existing players would already have a membership.

​

The program is for girls born in 2014, 2015 or 2016 and will be limited to 42 participants.

​

The aim of this program is to boost female participation numbers in our junior competition with the goal of boosting overall female participation numbers in our competition and representative programs.

​

To try and attract new players and retain existing players the following is being offered for the Spring 2023 Competition:

​

• New Players - $0 Competition Fee

• Returning Players = $100 Competition Fee  

​

All participants will still need to pay the BNSW membership fee if they aren't already a member. Kids joining from Aussie Hoops are free for the first 12 months and existing players would already have a membership.
