REGISTRATION FOR THE SEASONS CLOSE 6.30 PM on SATURDAY 14 NOVEMBER 2026

Finals are fast approaching. No fill ins are permitted to play in any of the finals games (All of the games in December 2026).

Registrations for the current season close at 6.30 pm on Saturday 14 November 2026. We must have received a competed registration form and the registration fee by this time. NO LATE REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED

Every year we get teams finding they are short of players for the finals. As fill ins are not permitted in finals games they either have to play with four or five players or they have to forfeit and the team misses out on finals action. Players should support their team organizers by notifying them before it is too late so the organisers can add extra players to cover for player absences.

USE OF FILL INS

ALL unregistered players participating in a game in the Basketball Innovations Competition are considered to be fill ins.

By participating in a Basketball Innovations game, a fill in has
agreed to comply with the Players Code of Conduct and Competition By-Laws.

Fill ins may be used so a team can avoid a forfeit or occasionally for a team or player to try out who has never previously played in the competition.

Fill ins can come from other teams within and from outside the competition.

Some people are not permitted to be used as fill ins for safety, insurance, financial and work-safe reasons. A list of de-registered
and illegal players is posted on the notice-board at the entrance of the courts and inside the black scoresheet files.

All fill in players are to be approved by the Competition Administrator or Court Manager PRIOR to representing a team in a game.

Penalties will apply to teams and players who violate the Fill In By-laws.

PAYMENT OF GAME FEES

The Basketball Innovations Players Code of Conduct has an expectation that all players contribute to their team's game fee. It has been brought to management's attention that some players have been taking advantage of their tem organisers generosity and not paying game fees.

Game fees cover court hire, payment of umpires medical equipment admin costs etc. Although it would be nice to be able to offer free games this is not possible in the real world.

A term and condition of participating in the Basketball Innovations Competition and highlighted in the Players Code of Conduct is that every player contributes to the team game fee. It is a cse of no pay no play.

In order to continue this competition your team leaders need your support. It is unfair for the leaders and your team mates who do the right thing to have to bear the cost of individuals who leave them in the lurch.

THREE THINGS THAT DESTROY TEAMS

1. Strife
2. Discouragement
3. Lack of commitment

You have control over strife. Should issues arise you can ensure you communicate respectfully with one another respectfully. Most issues arise through miscommunication and can be easily resolved. Occasionally issues are harder to resolve and both parties respectfully need to accept to disagree but not be disagreeable. Remember it is an issue not a personal attack.

Discouragement often happens when circumstances make things hard. Instead of quitting see this as a growth opportunity in the face of adversity. Every successful person and team has achieved their success by building from what they experienced when things were hard. Remember it is always darkest before the dawn. Make a decision to keep a positive outlook under all circumstances

With lack of commitment you have no control. That depends entirely upon the other the person. The ball is in their court figuratively. It is really a form of selfishness as their attitude and actions are inconsiderate of their team mates. Remember there is no I in TEAM. Teams should encourage those who lack commitment to start focussing on their team mates rather than themselves and to give rather than take. This who give for the sake of giving will always receive far more than they could imagine.
