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 1/7/2005 to 30/6/2015 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
Our current competition is our Winter Domestic Competition which runs in Term 2 and Term 3 of 2023. The season has started and most teams are full.
