CADBA PROGRAMS
Aussie Hoops at CADBA
Aussie Hoops is the perfect introduction to basketball for young children, offering a fun, inclusive, and engaging program that builds confidence, coordination, and a love for the game. As the first step in a child’s basketball journey, Aussie Hoops focuses on developing fundamental skills, teamwork, and enjoyment—setting players up for success as they progress into domestic competitions and eventually into pathways like VJBL.
At CADBA, we proudly run our Aussie Hoops sessions at two convenient times and locations:
Thursdays at Patterson River — 4:00pm–4:45pm
Saturdays at Bonbeach Stadium — 9:15am–10:00am
Our program is led by some of our wonderful Youth League players, who also coach within our junior VJBL program. Their passion, energy, and commitment to grassroots development make the sessions exciting and impactful. They understand the importance of nurturing young talent and take great pride in helping the next generation of Gulls learn, grow, and thrive.
Aussie Hoops is more than just basketball, it’s about building friendships, developing confidence, and giving every child a positive start in sport. We can’t wait to welcome your family to the court!
