WINTER COMPETITION 2026

BHN Basketball is now in the process of forming teams for the upcoming Winter competition.

If you'd like more information, please download our Winter Info Pack.

If you're ready to register with us, please click on the button that relates to the player's year of birth. This will take you to 360Player, the software BHN Basketball uses to communicate with our members and keep everything organised (accessible via desktop or free app). You will be prompted to create an account. Please do not use your Apple ID; we need your email address in case we have to contact you.

Once you have confirmed your details, head to the Club Lobby and again select the relevant registration group for the player's age. Complete the questionnaire and select your preferred payment method. You will see confirmation via email and on-screen if we have received your submission.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

Make sure you turn on your notifications so you can stay up to date with news and important announcements from the BHN Basketball admin team. This will include instructions on how to order your uniform in due course.

Once you have been successfully placed in a team, you will receive a confirmation email from Hills Basketball Association letting you know which team you are on. This should happen around mid-late February.

If you haven't played in the Hills local competition before, you will need to pay their annual registration fee either online through the dashboard on the Hills website or in person at either Hills Basketball Stadium or Bernie Mullane Sports Centre. This can be done in the week leading up to Winter competition commencing and must be paid before your first game.

Team chats will be set up closer to the start of Winter competition so you can get to know your team and stay informed regarding games and training. If you haven't done so already, please consider volunteering as your team's manager or coach. Each team requires a manager to function and it's really pretty easy, we promise!

Kids also love having their parents helping out as coaches so we encourage you to give it a go if you're capable. We can even allocate you a Club Mentor to act as your Assistant Coach for the season if you'd like a hand while you learn the ropes; our Club Mentors are older players from BHN Basketball with years of game experience who pair up with our younger teams to help run subs from the bench, provide game tips off court and help keep morale high. We've also found it's a great way to engage our community and give these Mentors extension opportunities, with the goal of them one day coaching their own team.

If you're really keen, Hills Basketball Association also offers a range of introductory coaching courses which we strongly recommend for anyone starting out or wanting to develop their skills.

AM I GUARANTEED A PLACE ON YOUR TEAM?

Our aim is to provide team placement for all registered players, however there may be instances where this is not possible due to numbers (either too few or too many). In the event that we cannot place you on a team, we will notify you as soon as possible and provide a full refund of any Winter registration fees already paid to BHN Basketball.
