Half of our teams are formed by friends who want to play together, and the other half are created based on new player enquiries. We work hard to find a team for each player, though team availability depends on current spots, new player interest, and the willingness of a parents to volunteer as a coach. We provide mentoring, training plans, and subs templates to support our volunteer coaches, ensuring they feel confident and equipped for the job.

Fee Refund Policy
Registering to play with the Frankston Bobcats Basketball Club signifies an ongoing commitment to the club for the upcoming season. A player withdrawal after registration has closed is disruptive not only to individual teams but the entire age group. Therefore, the club will only refund fees for a season under the following circumstances:
1. The refund request is in writing and submitted to Frankstonbobcats@gmail.com
2. The refund request is received by the club within 14 days of registrations closing – a full refund less the PlayHQ processing fee of 1.89% will be paid.
3. The refund request is received by the club other than during the timeframe mentioned above – a partial fee refund, as per the table below, will be paid only if:
- The player has been unable to play for a majority of the regular season due to injury, illness, or if the family moves away from the area.
- The request is received by the club prior to the commencement of the final round of the season in which the injury, illness, or move occurred.
3 games or less played - 75% refund
4 to 6 games played - 50% refund
7 games or more played - No refund
For the avoidance of doubt, refund requests will be denied if they do not meet the criteria mentioned above.
