All Auckland Council facilities running children’s basketball/miniball are moving to align with Basketball New Zealand rulings regarding the use of mouth guards being worn by all players under 19 years old. You can purchase from The Warehouse, Pharmacies or Sports Shops. Mouth guards need to be moulded before the first use, so please do this at least a day before your child’s first game.
Fees and Registrations
North Harbour Basketball, have now taken over the running of the Leisure Centre basketball league. They require us to register our teams through Game Day, which is their official registration platform. This means ALL parents will now need to complete a two-step registration process. Both registrations need to be filled in before your child’s registration is deemed as complete.
Leisure Centre Basketball – Year 7 & 8 – Cost $78 Term 1&2 Further costs to be paid directly to NH BB (See below)

Important Notice: Basketball Programme Changes at the Leisure Centre
Please note that, since Harbour Basketball (Harbour BB) has taken over operations, there have been changes to how basketball is administered at the Leisure Centre.
-
A full Basketball North harbour player payment of $110, plus a $5 Basketball New Zealand (BBNZ) levy, must be completed through GameDay at the time of individual player registration.
-
This payment is in addition to the team fee and KWS Basketball costs.
-
An automatic payment plan may be set up to pay the KWS team fee; however, the full GameDay payment must be made in full at the time of registration.
Please be aware that once you have registered with KWS, your child will be trialled (if necessary) and entered into a team and then you will be sent a registration link to register your child on the BB North harbour website called GameDay. This is when the further North harbour Basketball payment will be due . If either registration is incomplete, the player will not be considered registered and will not be able to play in a team.
Please make sure you download the TEAM REACH APP to get details.
