Hello and welcome to the home of the Scarborough Junior Basketball Club
the mighty ‘Scarborough Sharks’
2020 SEASON – COVID-19 UPDATE
To all our valued members
We hope you are keeping well and safe and coping with home schooling! For a bit of basketball practice also check out the Hawks Facebook page or the Homecourt App.
During these unprecedented times, we are understandably all new to a situation like this and while we as an entire community are unsure as to when we can expect life to return to normal – we are still hopeful that our basketball community can run some form of competition and the Sharks look forward to this as one of the lights at the end of the tunnel.
As we had completed our registration process before all the social distancing measures came into place we are fortunate that when the restrictions are lifted, our players are already allocated into teams, all those teams have coaches and we have a training facility & a great committee to support all of this. On top of this, Hawks basketball will have the competition ready to go. All of this means we will be able to hit the ground running, which I’m sure is what all our players will be greatly looking forward to. So please be patient with this, as neither BWA, Hawks or the Sharks have any control over this and we appreciate your understanding.
Keeping that structure in place for the moment is vital to the Sharks but as a club we understand that families may be experiencing financial hardship during these uncertain times and may be unable to wait. If that is the case, please contact our Treasurer Claire via email treasurer@scarboroughsharks.asn.au to discuss any membership refunds.
Take Care,
Anthony Collis
On behalf of the SJBC Committee
