At Cairns Basketball, our programs are designed to reflect the strength and diversity of our community.
From our Tiny Taipans to our Under 8s discovering the joy of the game, to junior and senior competitions, wheelchair basketball, and dynamic school holiday camps – we provide inclusive opportunities for players of all ages and abilities to belong, grow and thrive.
We are committed to building clear participation pathways that support development at every level. Whether you are taking your first shot, refining your skills, competing at an elite level, or staying connected through community sport, our programs foster confidence, leadership and a lifelong connection to basketball. Together, we are creating an environment where everyone has the opportunity to succeed, on and off the court.
The Tiny Taipans program is the perfect way for new players to learn the skills required for a life-long association with the game from experienced high-level players & coaches.
The sessions run for a total of 45 minutes (15 minutes of skills and 30 minutes of games). Registration costs for all sessions is $200 or $230 for all sessions and a Mini Hooperz & Court Cubs Singlet.
Cairns Hoopsnakes have been running the Wheelchair Basketball Program in Cairns for many years with members from all over Far North Queensland attending regularly.
Teams are selected from young basketball players who compete in the Cairns Basketball junior competitions. The players will attend trials from which teams of boys and girls are selected.
Players will be assigned to their team by Cairns Basketball Incorporated and the captain will be selected as the team manager and be the primary contact for all team communication.
Whether you’re just starting out or pushing for elite performance, our school camps are designed to elevate your play. Join us on the court and make this holiday one to remember!
