From domestic level, to the WABL and the NBL1, our player development pathways are practical and effective.
Domestic Level
Players from domestic clubs play against each other at a centralised location. There are eight domestic clubs based at Willetton Basketball Stadium – All Saints, Apollos, Bullets, Jets, Puma, Roadies, Sparks and Tangos. Clubs field teams at various grades within age groups against each other.
Western Australian Basketball League (WABL) – State Level (Juniors)
Teams represent Willetton against other BWA affiliated associations at different venues around the metropolitan area, inclusive of Bunbury. Teams are chosen after tryouts in February of each year. Age groups begin at under 12s. Only domestic players that are playing for a Willetton-based club can trial to join the Willetton Tigers.
