REGISTRATION

There are four parts to registration.

Basketball Australia (BA) Development Fund Annual 365 Registration
Basketball Queensland (BQ) Annual 365 Registration
Brisbane Basketball (BBI) Annual 365 Registration
Lang Park Basketball Club Seasonal Registration

Lang Park has no influence over BA, BQ and BBI fees or the way these are charged in Basketball Connect. The timing of registration (in advance of the season start) may result in some players being charged twice for fees in their first year of playing as the 365 day membership may be short of the full year. Association fees are also adjusted (pro-rata) as players turn 10.

Lang Park has no ability to change the way BQ, BBI or BA fees are charged.

FEE STRUCTURE

Depending on season and whether junior or senior club, will depend on how these components are applied.

Club Registration Fee

Covers the administration, loan of playing jersey, team nomination, presentation of trophies, coach development and coaching aides associated with the season. It varies from season to season. For seniors it only covers administration, team nomination and loan of playing jersey in select circumstances.

Training Fees

Covers contribution to court hire for training, provision of training aides and any pro coaching levy. Lang Park generally runs a supervising professional coach over most junior training sessions in order to ensure that all players receive a standard of coaching and fundamental skills development. The Pro coach also backfills the volunteer coaches that may not be able to attend all training sessions. Seniors pay their own training fees if required.

Match Fees

BBI charges a match fee for every game. These are a fixed charge for the match regardless of number of players and are collected up front. This reduces pressure on team managers to chase down families during the season and avoids awkward moments. This component makes up almost 50% of all Junior fees and are a direct pass through to BBI. Seniors manage their own match fees.
