Dear DVBA Members,
 
After the exciting news of restrictions easing in Melbourne, the DVBA Board met this week to establish the Association’s roadmap in returning to basketball.
 
You will all fully appreciate that any return to Junior Domestic Competitions is dependent on what is permitted by the Victorian Government and, in turn, sanctioned by Basketball Victoria. We are thrilled with the Premier’s announcement of the easing of restrictions in Metropolitan Melbourne, however, we have no further advice from Basketball Victoria regarding a return to sport date at this time.
 
The following decisions have been made regarding how basketball will be resuming for the remainder of 2020:
 

Junior Domestic Competitions will resume, as a continuation of Season 2020, as soon as is permitted. 

As previously discussed with clubs, a return will include Regular Season games only, not Finals Matches.

If a resumption of play is possible, Season 2020 will conclude on 20 December 2020. 

If play is unable to recommence before the end of November, further information will be provided citing a return through programs as sanctioned at that time.

Registrations for the Autumn Season 2021 will open shortly, via PlayHQ

Diamond Valley Sports and Fitness Centre will be under construction until the end of Term 1 2021. Our competitions and programs will be divided among our other venues until its completion.

We would like to thank you all for your continued support and understanding this year. We hope that good news is imminent and that we can see all of you back on court very soon.
 
Kind regards,
 
Matthew Stewart
Competitions Manager
