My child wants to play in two age groups, what do I do?
You must discuss this with both age group coordinators (their proper age group coordinator and the age group above), so the coordinators are aware they must allocate the player into two teams. Then you must register twice- there is a 50% discount for playing in a second team, so ask the age group coordinator in the higher age group for this code prior to registering in the second team.
Do I need to score at my childs game?
Team managers will assign one parent to score each game. It is a good idea to become familiar with both the iPad and electronic scoreboard systems.
Do I have to pay entry to watch my child play?
Yes, all spectators over the age of 12 are required to pay an entry fee. Parents can order a season pass to allow entry into the stadium each week during the season (not including finals). This is great value compared to paying entry each week at the door. These can be purchased on the SBA website. www.southernbasketball.com.au
When is my child's game?
Games are posted on the PlayHQ website or the MyHoops App- check regularly in case of changes to games.
My child is interested in playing with the Mustangs and I would like to check if a spot exists.
We encourage you to talk to the relevant age coordinator. Please see our committee contact list for details.
Can you please advise where teams train?
We currently have 3 training venues, Beaumaris Secondary College, Parkdale Secondary College and Parktone Primary School. For the next season, we are unsure where teams will be training until we have finalised the number of teams, but it is very likely to be one of these three venues.
Are extra training sessions (clinics) available ?
Information regarding optional programs can be found at www.mentonemustangs.com.au/optional-programs
How can I register for my child to play?
Registrations details can be found under the Registrations tab of this website.
How does a team get a coach and team manager?
There are three basic steps when it comes to teams coming together:
1/. Players register in PlayHQ
2/. Age coordinators build the team of 7-8 players (9 by exception)
3/. A volunteer team manager and coach are allocated from the pool of team parents. On occasion when a parent is not available to coach, families within the team may approach a sibling, friend or older player to take on the role.
