Coaches Wanted!

The Southern District Junior Basketball League is used as a pathway into our District program. This extends beyond the players and the league is a great way to get involved in coaching, refereeing and administrating.

We are currently looking for interested coaches for the remainder of the summer season. Time commitments include a Saturday afternoon game and one 60 minute mid-week training. If you think you would like to get into coaching this is a great starting point and we would love to hear from you!! Training will be provided for all new coaches and ongoing mentoring is available on game day by our SDJBL coordinator.

If you are interested please contact our Basketball Operations Manager Claire Dunsmore at claire.dunsmore@southadelaidebasketball.com.au
