Due to high demand, we leave this as an active waitlist that remains open for parents to register players information throughout the term. Competitions are based around school terms over 8 weeks.
Games are Wednesdays (U16, U18, adults) or Fridays (U10, U12, U14) with Franklin Basketball in Pukekohe.
U8 Hoopsters is a Monday only programme in Waiau Pa (no games in Pukekohe).
Note that the age groups have been renamed this year, as Basketball New Zealand (and therefore Franklin Basketball) have changed the names of all age groups to align with FIBA (world basketball). These age groups are exactly the same, they just have new names. For example 11U (11 years and under, can't be older than 11 years old, so can't turn 12 in the calendar year) is now called U12 (under 12 years, so can't turn 12 in the calendar year). If you're confused - don't worry! We'll put your child in the correct age group according to the year they were born:
- U8 Hoopsters (2017, 2018, 2019) turns 5, 6 or 7 this year - must be at least 5 years old
- U10 (2015, 2016) - turns 8 or 9 this year
- U12 & U12 Girls Only (2013, 2014) - turns 10 or 11 this year
- U14 & U14 Girls Only (2011, 2012) - turns 12 or 13 this year
- U16 & U16 Girls Only (2009, 2010) - turns 14 or 15 this year
- U18 (2007, 2008) - turns 16 or 17 this year
- Anyone born in 2006 or earlier can join our Midweek Hoops team (if enough interest)
