Congratulations to all our athletes who have been selected to play in a Wolves team for State Champs 2023. We were excited to see a record number of athletes at trials this year. We have some great talent ready to hit the floor in green. If you have not made a team, we thank you for participating in the trial, and for all your efforts during the sessions. We wish you well in your future basketball endeavors and hope you’ll be back to tryout again next year. If you did make a team, keep in mind that selections are for State Champs only. The State Champs trainings and tournament are a part of our tryout process and player movement will occur following State Champs, leading into Grading/WABL Season.

If you’ve been selected, these are your next steps:

STEP 1. You need to confirm and accept your roster spot. To do this, you need to:

• Register and pay the State Champ fees for the season by the 18th of November using the link below. The fee for State Champs is $114 per player plus $16 for referees is $130 total.You will no longer be required to pay cash on the day for referees. The above fees cover that cost completely. You need to complete the registration follow the link and to complete the final step, you must have paid.
• Link to PlayHQ State Champs Registration

• Agree to the players/parents code of conduct. The code of conduct for players and parents can be found in the links below. Within the registration process from the link above, you will need to agree to the WBA player and parent codes of conduct.

For more information on the Player Acceptance Procedure, click the link below:

• Player Acceptance Procedure

 

For codes of conduct and policies see here:

• Player Code of Conduct
• Parent/Spectator Code of Conduct
• WABL Player Selection Policy

Players by agreeing to their spot on a State Champs team are committing to also accept a position on a WABL team if they are chosen. Players that do not uphold this commitment (play State Champs, are then selected to a WABL team at Wolves, but decline), become ineligible for selection into Wolves teams for the next 12 months.    

For those who did not review the Player Selection prior to tryouts, the link is above. The biggest thing to note, is that after thorough review, we have improved our selection process to better suit the needs of our association fielding a record number of teams. In particular, the Team 3 all bottom rule is replaced with the Rule of 15 and Rule of 21 (meaning there must be 15+ bottom age players in teams 1-4, and 21+ bottom age players in total, for the entire age group. The Team 3 rule was enacted when most of our age groups maxed out at 3 teams, so now that we have 5 teams in each age group, our selection policy has been updated. Top-age players are now eligible to be selected into all teams, including Team 3.     

If you do make a WABL team, it is a requirement that all WABL players MUST play in the Wanneroo Basketball Association Winter Junior Domestic Competition. This will mean registering with a domestic club that will carry additional fees.

Fees for a WABL player (if the player makes a WABL team following state champs) are broken up into fees for Grading Season and WABL Season:

• Grading Season - $114 + $16 Referee Fee = $130 total (Exact same as State Champs - We are charging for the referees up front, so you will NOT need to pay cash for the referees on the day of games).

• WABL Season - $515

 

STEP 2: Come to training, work hard, and be a good teammate.

• Training starts this Sunday, the 22nd of October. The training schedule can be found here:  LINK TO TRAINING SCHEDULE

•  Your coach will be in contact to introduce themselves prior to the first training.

 

STEP 3: Get State Champs ready.

• All Participants must have WABL Shorts and Mouthguards
• You will also be required to purchase a Wolves training reversible and Warm Up Shirt (long sleeve).
• The above items can be purchased via  www.wolfpackwear.com.au.

 

*PLEASE NOTE - Any player who is deemed unfinancial to the association (ie has outstanding fees with WBA) will be ineligible to participate in State Champs and WABL until all fees are paid*
