Please be advised that training resumes this Sunday the 18th January at Riverbanks College, with U12s and U14s at 9am and U16s and U18s at 10:30am. Please be active on your group chats on teamapp, and advise coaches if you are unavailable for any trainings.

TEAM/PLAYER CHANGES: As it is imperative for us to finalise teams, please advise the club or your coach if for some reason you are not continuing post Christmas. We also have some new players joining, therefore we need to make sure that we get team numbers correct, and add new teams if required.

SEASON FEES: There are a number of players that still have outstanding fees. These MUST be paid before the Starplex carnival, and if not paid by then the player will be removed from the team. If you have difficulty paying fees, then please email finance, and we thank you for you tending to this ASAP if you have outstanding fees.

TEAMAPP: You should have now downloaded stack teamapp and gained access to your team. This would have placed you into the team’s chat group. You must start communicating with your team here. Some teams will start messenger chats, which is fine, but please still be active on your teamapp chat, as this is the only way the club can directly contact the whole team.

STARPLEX CARNIVAL: We have only registered SOME Northern Roar teams for the Starplex Carnival, due to reduced availability which was asked prior to Xmas. This Sunday at training we will be asking all players who is available for the Starplex carnival so we can merge and finalise teams. This carnival is ran and organised by Starplex, not the Central Districts Basketball Club. Team schedules should be announced and advertised in the next few weeks. This will be displayed using the Play HQ app.

ONGOING COMMUNICATION/COMMITMENT: Going forwards we ask that ALL players/families are active on their teams TEAMAPP CHAT. ALL players must advise game availability by Thursday before the game. This is so that coaches can be aware who is available, and find alternate players in some occasions if needed. If you do not advise your availability by Thursday, then coaches will assume you are not playing and you cannot take the court. This allows coaches to be more organised and a smoother process for playing each week.

Welcome back, we hope you enjoyed your break and are now ready to get back out on the court and prepare for what should be an exciting finish to the AJBL Summer Season!
