Barrengarry Conference Mission

To provide a low-cost, representative basketball experience to the maximum number of participants in a developmental environment.

Players

The Conference aims to provide opportunities for players, coaches, referees and administrators to be in involved in a level of participation that presents an experience that is rewarding and/or provides an incentive to be active at higher levels of the competition.
The competition is based on the Rules of Basketball NSW (BNSW) and the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) but does vary to suit the philosophies of the Barrengarry Conference.
The basic philosophy is for the participant to have fun and enjoyment, make new friends and develop skills. Competition ladders are not a major concern.
The competition aims to introduce participants to a level of representative competition that is not available to them at a higher strata of progression or offer incentive to progress higher.
Many participants will be happy to gain experience at this level in a development framework to progress to future representative competition.

Junior or developing referees gain experience at a level above their club or association,
supported to referee at further representative competition.

Parents, especially, are given the chance to develop skills in scorebench and managing teams at a level above club or association.
