RETURNING MEMBERS

Welcome to Bruins Under 9's Development Program.

The Under 9’s Competition is designed to provide athletes who have had some basketball experience a pathway into competitive basketball. This program caters for young athletes, who are between the ages of 7 to 9, who are too young to enter into Bruins Junior Domestic Competition.

Our experienced coaches run our practice sessions and then referee/coach the games to ensure our players are both learning the rules and using the skills they have been practicing. All athletes in the Under 9’s must not turn 9 years old during the competition. We run 4 x U9’s Competitions each year, running in line with the School Terms. Children are placed in teams and a roster is sent out at the beginning of the term, with game times for the season, there will be weeks where your game is not at your normal specified time.

The classes run in accordance with school terms.
