What you need to know about try-outs:

Do I need to attend all of the try-outs?

You should aim to attend all of the try-outs. Taking part in all of the try-outs gives you the best chance of being considered for a team. If you are unable to take part in all of the try-outs you should notify the Director of Coaching who can pass this information on to the age group coaches.

Can anyone attend tryouts?

Yes. We prefer those selected into the Falcons represenative program to play domestically in the WBA competition, however anyone is welcome to attend try-outs. Players who are currently or have been previously registered with another representative association will need the appropriate permission to train or clearance form.

How do I register?

Online registrations will be available in the lead up to the beginning of try-outs. There will be online options for new players, WBA Domestic players and current Falcons players to register.

What should I bring?

A named basketball, drink bottle and reversible (or light and dark) singlet.
