2020 Representative Agreement Handbook
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on being selected into the City of Blacktown Basketball Association (CBBA) - STORM
representative basketball program for the 2020 season. We are looking forward to seeing you
represent our association to the greatest of your ability, on and off the court.
Commitment to a representative season does not just involve the athletes themselves, but also the
coaches and in the case of junior players, parents. This handbook will outline what is expected from
the players and parents for the upcoming season. Copies of the spectator’s code of behaviour and
players’ code of conduct are attached, along with the representative player and parent/guardian
agreement to outline what the player/parent/spectator expects, and what is expected of them.
REPRESENTATIVE PROGRAM
Season Scheduling
• The CBBA - Storm competes in the Spalding Waratah Junior and Senior League competitions
conducted by Basketball NSW.
• Prior to the start of the season, some teams may be required to participate in the Waratah
Metro Junior League pre-season. This pre-season is held over two to three weekends, with the
aim of grading teams into an appropriate division. The pre-season period typically runs from late
February to mid-March
• During the proper season, Junior games are played on a Sunday. The starting and finishing time
of these games can vary from anywhere between 8:30am to 4:00pm. Games are typically not
played during the middle of the school holidays. However, games are usually scheduled the
weekend before the start of the school term, and the weekend following the final day of the
school term.
• The regular season typically runs from late-March/early-April to mid/late-August.
• Depending upon their division and success, teams will be required to compete at either the
Waratah Junior State Championships (Division 1) or the Waratah Junior State Cup
• The Storm’s home games are played at Kevin Betts Stadium, located at Ralph Place in Mount
Druitt (Behind Town Centre Reserve). The Storm’s away games are played at various locations
through the Sydney metropolitan area. A list of all associations and their venues will be provided
with this handbook
Training
• Players must be at training 10 minutes prior to the commencement of training
• If you are unable to attend training, please notify the Coach & Team Manager directly
• If you are unable to participate in training due to injury or illness, you are still expected to
present at training. The only exceptions to this are if you are being treated for your injury, or if
your illness is contagious.
• The current proposal is that each team will have two (2) 90-minute training sessions each week.
Teams will be expected to start training in December. Note: This may be subject to change

2020 Representative Agreement Handbook
Registration
• All players must be a current registered member of City of Blacktown Basketball Association
(CBBA)
• Players currently un-registered will need to register with the CBBA.
• Players currently registered at another association will need to register as an affiliated member
with CBBA.
Playing Time
• Playing time is not guaranteed at a representative level
• The only exception to this is in the Under 12’s age group, where players are required to take
the court in both halves
• Some players will have greater court time over other players due to the Coach’s strategies.
Time allocation is at the discretion of the coach.
• Factors such as attendance at training, punctuality, behaviour may also factor into improving
the likelihood of players increasing their court time.
Parental Commitment
• Parents are expected to be responsible for the transport of their children, to and from
training sessions and games
• In the likelihood that a parent is unable to transport their children, arrangements will need
to be made with another parent.
• It is compulsory for parents to undertake score table duties during the representative
season. Families are rostered on a rotational basis. Parents will be required to attend a score
table course during training February /March 2020.
• Parents that do not fulfil their score table duties can risk their children’s participation in the
representative games
• Teams will be required to roster two (2) parents/ guardians 16yrs + per Home Game at KBS
to assist in the collection of the Spectator Fee at least one hour prior to Home games.
Local Competition
• As part of the representative commitments, ALL players are required to play in our domestic
competition. The junior domestic competition is held on Thursday & Friday evenings.
• Each team in the domestic competition is only allowed a maximum of three representative
(this includes Representative Development Players) players from their natural age group.
Players playing up an age group, in the domestic competition (i.e. A U/14’s player competing
in the U/16’s domestic competition), will not be classified as a representative player.
• However, players must prioritise competing in the domestic competition in their natural age.
