Fixtures
All fixtures will be available on the HBA website www.hawthornbasketball.com.au in the week prior to the commencement of a new season. Fixtures will then be revised after the three pre-season grading games. Fixtures will also be available on the Fox Sporting pulse App downloadable on your phone.
Training
The team manager should notify team members and the coach if there are any changes to training time and venue. If you have a bye or are not playing a match due to a long weekend, it is up to the manager and the coach to decide if there will be training the week before.
You need to notify your team manager if your child will not be attending training. If for some reason the majority of players are going to be absent (eg school camp), it is up to the team manager and the coach to decide whether to cancel that week’s training.
Please make arrangements for the timely pick-up of your child after training. If there is a delay, a parent on duty should stay with the child and contact the parent (see parent contact list) and make appropriate arrangements. At least one parent at the training session should have a copy of the parent contact list with them in case of emergency.
Training Venues
KEBC team’s training venue is booked for the team’s allocated training day and time, from the week prior to Round 1 of the Hawthorn Basketball Association fixture, up to, and including the week prior to the last game on the fixture.
A Half-Court is booked for each KE Team and will be available prior to a “Bye” and the long weekends where no game is scheduled.
Venues are not booked for the week prior to the start of Victorian State School Holidays.
Venues are not booked during School Holidays, or on Public Holidays.
Finals: Training Venues will be booked for teams that are participating in the finals.
Scoring and Training Roster
Your team manager will provide a scoring and training (optional for U14 and above) roster at the start of the season.
If you have not done scoring before, sit with another parent who knows how to score for a couple of weeks to learn the procedure. A comprehensive guide to Scoring is available on the HBA website under Information. Click here.
Training Times and Venues
KEBC predominantly train at Kew East Primary School and Kew High School from Mondays to Thursdays in hourly slots from 4pm to 8pm. There are also limited sessions held at Trinity Grammar School, Xavier College and Balwyn High School.
Heat Policy
KEBC operate under the HBA Heat Policy Guidelines for training and games and these are contained on the HBA website under Information. Click here for more information.
In junior age groups, it is a good idea to get all players to sign the back of the score sheet for the first five matches, prior to the game starting and not at the end of the game.
Stadium Duty
Approximately once per season each team will be rostered to undertake Stadium Duty for three hours. You will need to assist your team to cover the three hour period. A list of duties for Stadium Duty is attached here.
