About the competition
The Perth Redbacks Domestic Competition caters to junior basketball players who are in Year 3 through to Year 12 at school.
The competition is played across three venues:
- Belmont Oasis Leisure Centre
- The Leisurelife Centre – Vic Park
- Loftus Recreation Centre
All players born 1/7/2006 to 30/6/2016 are welcome to join a team via one of our affiliated clubs.
The competition is graded to ensure that all levels of players, from beginner through to WABL/junior elite, can compete against similarly able teams/players each week.
Current competition – Winter Domestic 2024
The 2024 Winter Domestic competition runs in Term 2 and Term 3 of 2024.
Next competition – Summer Domestic 2024/2025
The Summer Domestic competition starts in Term 4 of 2024. If you’d like to get your child into a team for the Summer Domestic competition, and they are not already part of a Perth Basketball Association Domestic club, you should reach out to clubs near you (see below for all club details) in Term 3 to find out whether they anticipate having any vacancies in Summer.
