This year the Devonport Primary School Basketball Tournament will be held from Friday, 7th -Sunday, 9th July. The age groups for this competition are Years 1/2, 3/4 and 5/6 for girls and boys. Games may be rostered on Friday night (7th July) through to the finals on Sunday afternoon (9th July). *Please be aware this is the first weekend of the Term 3 school holidays. Games may be played in Devonport, East Devonport and Ulverstone over this weekend. The team registration cost will be covered by the school and if your child is not currently registered with Basketball Tasmania there will be a cost of $10.00 per child. (link for payment will follow on confirmation of teams). There will be no cost for players or spectators for entry to the tournament.
Our participation in this tournament will rely on parent commitment as parents will be required to coach, manage teams, and complete bench and canteen duties over the weekend. Each team will be required to nominate a coach, manager, and referee to register a team. All coaches and managers will need to hold a Working with Vulnerable People registration.
A parent roster for bench duty (two volunteers for each game) will be organised for participating teams and you will be rostered on with someone that has had previous experience in completing this duty. Once coaches and team managers are nominated, training for this tournament can be arranged.
The school will provide a playing singlet and students are required to wear navy sports shorts, sneakers/basketball boots and a school jacket or rugby top for warmth.
If you have any questions, please contact the school as soon as possible. Further information will be sent to families as we receive it.
Kind regards,
Megan Meech & Tameka Harris
