For all players born 2006 to 2011
The CBA is a values centric programme focused on creating great teammates. Great teammates:
Have a team first mentality,
Are hard workers,
Are strong listeners,
Work well with others, and
Have a “Next Play Mentality.”
All players trailing for a CBA team should be aware of these values and be ready to dedicate themselves to them prior to registering for trials.
All other information on Canterbury Basketball Association’s Rep programme can be found below. Please ensure you have thoroughly read all information prior to registering for trials to ensure you are willing and able to make the commitment required.

Of special note for the 2025 rep programme is the expansion of the mainland’s programme which can be found here. Mainlands teams will be immediately selected following the rep trial Feb 23rd and March 2nd. They will train in parallel with the rep teams and play an additional “blitz” tournament ontop of the established mainlands programme in June/July. Please be aware to participate in mainlands, you MUST attend these trials. The rep readiness camp will prepare all players of all levels for these trials.
To register follow this game-day link.
