Fees and Charges
Our registration fees ensure that all players are covered by insurance and have access to high-quality programs. These fees allow us to maintain a safe, inclusive, and well-organised environment while supporting the growth and development of basketball in our community.
Our registration fee has three components:
— Basketball NSW Fees: These are minimum fees set annually by Basketball NSW for all participants (players, coaches, officials, etc.). This fee covers essential services provided by Basketball NSW, including insurance and governance.
For more information, please refer to the Basketball NSW Membership FAQ and Fee Schedule.
— BMBA Membership Fees: BMBA charges an additional membership fee on top of the Basketball NSW minimum to help cover our operational overheads. These include staff wages, technology, software subscriptions and website hosting fees, among others.
— Basketball Australia Development Levy: BA reinvests the fee back into projects that strengthen basketball’s foundations and ensure its continued growth as a major team sport in Australia. This includes improving the pathways for officiating, coaching, and digital transformation.
If you already hold an active Basketball NSW Membership with another association, you will only be charged the BMBA component of the registration fee.
Note that your Secondary Registration expires at the same time as your Primary Registration.
