25 April Draw 2026

2 May Draw 2026 (duty to be added)

Notes:

  • ANZAC Day – start times are different to normal, due to CCC venues not opening until 1pm. Please advise the teams playing first at Parakiore, or Cowles, that they won’t be able to enter those venues until 1pm
  • 9 May – this is the week where our 13U grades start, so we’ll be using our full assortment of venues from then on
  • Warmup Time – teams will be given a minimum of eight minutes on the court before their games begins. It is highly encouraged to utilise BBNZ’s On-Point Game Ready Activation to prepare your teams to perform, as well as minimise the risk of injury (including warming up before they have access to the court). If you’d like to find out more about this, Ben Constable has been facilitating development opportunities and education via clubs
