Kiwihoops (basketball) Term 2 & 3 2024 - registrations close April Sunday 14th at 6pm Link to Registration Form

Basketball New Zealand has introduced a new structure towards the Kiwihoops Program which meant we had to tick off multiple boxes to keep the names. We are currently in the process of this but until then, please see below the new grade names for each competition and age group.


Venue: All games will be played on Thursday afternoons at the Edgar Sports Centre.   

Start Date: Thursday 9th May

End Date: Thursday 15th August (12 weeks)

Exclusion dates: May 16th  (nuggets home game)

Game Times: Year 1-2 3:30- 5:50pm, Year 3-4 3:30-6:30pm, Year 5-6 3:30-6:30pm. Game times change each week depending on the draw.


Individual player registration costs will not be finalised until team numbers are confirmed.  However it is anticipated that Yr 1-2 team members will pay approximately $50, Yr 3-4 team members will pay approximately $50 and Yr 5-6 students will pay approximately $80 each.  


Students will be placed into teams based on their year groups.  Teams will have a maximum of two or three substitutes to ensure a fair amount of game time for all.  Those children who register first will be given priority placement into any teams.  Please don't delay registering so that teams can be finalised and fees confirmed promptly.


Kiwihoops Junior Mini Dunkers - Year 1-2. This is a 3 versus 3 competition run on a half court.


Kiwihoops Junior Ballers - Year 3-4. This is a 4 versus 4 competition run on a half court.


Kiwihoops Junior Rising Stars - Year 5-6. This is a 5 versus 5 competition run on a full court. 

Each team requires a parent (or two if you'd be happy to share the load), to manage them on game day and sit on the score bench.  Please indicate on the registration form if you'd be happy to help with this.
