Costing
2015 Academy Squad: $350 Development Squad: $250 This includes a Berwick College uniform, all tournament fees and the expert coaching. We have been able to keep our costing to a minimum as our program is predominantly run by qualified teachers with basketball expertise. Costing's may change in the future especially in the Year 9/10 program as students gain extra qualifications such as Refereeing and Coaching accreditation.
Enrolment Process
Application Forms will be due May 15th to Berwick College’s front
office
Late Term 2 try outs held at the school
We are hopeful ALL students trying out for the academy will
be accepted into the program.
The program will be levelled, so each
participating student is receiving
coaching to their current abilities.
