Hoopstars is an inclusive club and makes it possible for any person wanting to play to take the court. In the event that we reach our capacity for a season we will stop taking registrations and place inquiring players on a waiting list for any vacancy that opens up, or to give priority during the next season.
The information below should provide the details for the season with the exclusion of training times. This always varies due to coach and venue availability.
The registration is a 2 step process. The first step is to register and pay the Hoopstars registration fees and Step 2 is to register with the association and state bodies. When registering please complete both steps.
The registration link is sent out via Basketball Connect and email to returning players first. Returning players are given 2 weeksto registered before we open up to our expression of interest players. If you did not receive your registration link please make sure that you check your spam/junk folder.
