Welcome to Miniball / Basketball at Devonport Primary School!
Season 1 miniball registration is now closed. An opportunity to play in Season 2 2012 is still ahead, so be sure to complete your registration form. Those Year 2 and 3 children who missed out in Season 1 due to a lack of players in that age group, are encouraged to try again in Season 2! Come out and watch a practice -- you may even be able to join in.
2012 Holiday Camps:
The 2012 Holiday Camp dates have been confirmed for the whole year. There are discounts for attending more than one camp (see conditions) and the usual family discount for more than one child attending. All details of the holiday camp can be accessed on the Harbour Basketball website www.harbourbasketball.sportingpulse.net.
The cost will again include subway lunch each day and a camp tee shirt. A subway order form is on the Harbour Basketball website for your convenience. Cookies can be ordered at an extra $1 per cookie and can either be paid for separately on the first day or be added to your registration fee.
Angela and the team at Harbour Basketball run a great holiday basketball coaching camp. The camps are fun and a great opportunity to improve your skills!
- Encourage your teammates
- Use appropriate language
- Miniball
/ basketball is not a contact sport; go for the ball, not the person.
Learn and practice the appropriate offensive and defensive skills.
- Line up and shake hands with the other team and the referees at the end of the game.
- Unsportsmanlike behaviour by coaches, managers, players, or spectators will not be tolerated and may result in your team receiving a technical penalty.

Devonport Blazers (Yr 4):
Coach: Jack and John Nunnington, Manager: Maire Vieth
Team: Oscar Heim, Shea Bratton, Solvi Gudmundsson, Elliot Collinge Moore, Louie Nunnington, August Elworthy, Marcus Hall-Taylor
Practice Time: Wednesday 8am on DPS court
Games: Tuesday, March 6, North Shore Events Centre: A hard-fought battle ended in a 8-5 loss -- not a thrashing. Tuesday, March 13: a convincing win! And, now the team has been graded into the Gold League. Keep up the fighting spirit, team!
Games
Years 4 and 5 play half-court defense. Year 6 play full-court.
Only coach, manager and players are to be on the team bench during games.
It is a good idea to have a basic first-aid kit with icepack and plasters on hand at games.
Best of luck and lots of FUN, Teams!!
