The Woodville District Basketball Club's development pathway is through the Westside Basketball Association.
Our competition is aimed at players who are just starting basketball, players who want to improve their basketball skills and players who want to get more exposure to match play in a fun and competitive environment.
The Westside Basketball Association is a coordinated introductory program covering all children and schools across the western suburbs.
We aim to:
Competition
Westside Junior Basketball is played at St Clair Recreation Centre on a Saturday afternoon during school terms.
We cater for boys and girls in a mixed competition.
If there are spaces available, players can join a team at any time during the season.
We offer an optional training session on Sunday afternoons for players who want to learn the fundamentals of basketball and improve their skills.
2024 sees a change to the timing of our seasons. We will be transitioning to a Winter and Summer season during the year. This will see our seasons align with the District Basketball calendar and complement the seasons of other sports, such as cricket and football, as well as school sports.
The winter season is terms 2 and 3. The summer season is term 4 and term 1 of the following year.
We encourage external, social teams to join our competition.
