SBL Terms and Conditions

Sydney Basketball League is committed to providing a premium competition for social and competitive basketball players. It is an expectation that all participants treat the venue, staff and opponents with respect at all times.

PLAYER REGISTRATIONS

  • Under no circumstances can a player be unregistered whilst participating and must create an account/profile prior to taking the court for a SBL game. Teams to be found to play unregistered players will be given a direct forfeit loss including -3 competition points and risk being banned from Sydney Basketball League competitions.
  • Each player is accountable for their own account/profile with correct information and contact details. Sydney Basketball League has the right to cancel or suspend any account/profile with written information and right of reply.
  • We encourage teams to have a minimum of seven (7) players (injuries, absences) with a maximum of twelve (12) active players.

FORFEITS/ TEAM WITHDRAWALS/ DRAW CHANGES

  • Forfeits in SBL are unacceptable. Please refer to our rules and regulations section for more details on forfeits and penalties applied.
  • Team withdrawals after draw has been published is unacceptable. Should a team withdraw after the draw has been published on our website, a withdrawal fee of $500 will need to be paid by the team.
  • Teams requesting for changes in the draw after the draw has been published will incur a $250 fee.

OUR REFUND POLICY

  • Once registered for our competitions we do not offer a refund.

  • For School Holiday Camps, a refund will not be offered without a Doctors Certificate. You may however be offered a credit to use towards future camps. 

GRADING OF TEAMS

SBL has the right to move a team up or down a division based on its standings in previous competitions and overall performance.

GAME TIMES

Game times are published on the SBL website.

Note - game times may change throughout the season due to delays caused by special events, maintenance and weather. Competitions may be extended and/or reduced due to unforeseen circumstances; season start dates are variable. SBL will communicate any changes to participating teams. We strongly advise that you check your game times on website on the day you are playing.

Due to the hours of operation at some of our venues, our game times may vary from 6:00 pm through to 10:30 pm (generally for weeknight competitions). For non-weeknight competitions this will depend on the availability of the venue.

We spread these games out as evenly as we can amongst all participating teams. This is to ensure fairness to all teams.
