21.01.2022 Basketball Victoria have updated new regulations that will come into effect as of today, for when the season returns. Please feel free to read and understand the new rules surrounding COVID for when we return to the court.

19.01.2022 Now more than ever, Victorian kids deserve the chance to get outside and be active. Back with their friends and teammates back on the pitch, the courts, and t...he cricket nets. But new boots and rego fees aren't cheap and for some families, the cost means that kids miss out altogether. We don't think that's fair. Which is why we're doing this: For the first time ever, up to 100,000 Victorian kids will be given $200 sports vouchers to help cover the cost of getting involved. New bats, balls, uniforms, memberships and sign-up fees can be paid for and the vouchers will be available next year in time for community sport to get going again. I know this might seem like a simple announcement but it'll go a long way towards making sure every Victorian child has the opportunity to follow their passion, do their best and have fun. It'll mean that the next Don Bradman or Tayla Harris doesn't miss out simply because their family can't afford the fees. And it makes things that little bit fairer too.

18.01.2022 Afternoon Phantoms, You may have seen some announcements from the state government around the changes to contact & non-contact sport today and we wanted to make sure this was clarified in relation to basketball. From 11:59pm on the 8th November, indoor community, non-contact sport for 18 years and under will resume. The definition of non-contact is "a sport capable of being done at a distance of 1.5 meters, with spectators limited to one parent, guardian or carer only." Shor...t of playing only zone defense and shooting 3-pointers, this means that basketball doesn't fit into this category and unfortunately won't see a restart on the 8th of November. There is a chance that outdoor sessions like training can resume and we will keep you up to date on this as we move forward. The current date for indoor contact sport to resume is still planned as the 28th of November and again, we will advise you of any announcements from either the club or the competition as the date moves closer. If you have any questions, please reach out. Stay strong!

07.01.2022 Hi all, We've had some queries regarding the $100 payable to register for the Autumn 2021 season and we wanted to help clarify a few things: ---------------------------------------------- - Firstly, this fee is payable for all players, regardless whether you paid fees last year or not. If your fees for the 2020 season were paid in full, then no further fees are required once you have registered and paid the $100.... ---------------------------------------------- - We've also had queries regarding the $100 deduction from any refunds requested for those that may not want to play next year. For clarity if you paid full fees of $260 for the season (1st child) you will receive a $160 refund (less for 2nd and 3rd players in the same family as $100 will be deducted for all players). ---------------------------------------------- - You may be asking why this is the case. Whilst it does seem a long time ago, the Autumn 2020 season commenced in late January with five games played and 6 weeks of training conducted. For this to occur, the club incurred the costs for those 5 games including: - Basketball Victoria registration fees (not refunded to the club) - DVBA registration fees (not refunded to the club) - Game fees (not refunded to the club) - Training venue hire (not refunded to the club) All up, these costs equate to $100 per player. The club is simply allowing for these costs when working out the registration fee for the next season or refunds mentioned above. We believe this to be very fair for all. ---------------------------------------------- - For those that may have received a full refund earlier in the year, the club did this in absolute good faith for the individuals concerned that may have been suffering financial hardship - no questions asked. A very small number of families took this up and we do hope it helped in some way to get through such extraordinary times. In August, we also offered refunds with a $50 deduction only. This was also done in good faith to support families who may have been struggling at that time. This $50 deduction was based on the best information we had at the time regarding refunds etc. the club may receive. Again, a small number of families took up this option and again we hope it helped them get through. ---------------------------------------------- - The costs of the full or subsidised refunds will be absorbed by the club for now using historical funds available and will have to be recovered in the future through fundraising or otherwise to maintain a strong club into the future. The club is so very appreciative of the small number of families who donated their fees to help this cause, it absolutely makes a huge difference and we are so grateful. If you have any further queries please contact the Treasurer at [email protected]. Thank you. Yarrambat Phantoms Executive Team.
