  • At our club, we understand the importance of camaraderie in basketball, and we strive to create a welcoming environment for everyone. While we typically hold try-outs once a year before the summer season begins, our team selections are primarily based on skill level and experience to ensure a balanced competitive team.

    That said, we recognise the value of friendships and the enhanced enjoyment it brings to the game! We do our best to accommodate requests to play with friends during the selection process. If you and your friend are both interested in joining our teams, we encourage you both to attend the try-outs together and mention your request. Our goal is to foster an inclusive environment where everyone can develop their abilities, engage in competitive play and enjoy the camaraderie of basketball. The Bears have something for everyone!
