About the Margaret River Basketball Association
Discover the Heart of Basketball in Margaret River
The Margaret River Basketball Association was founded in 1962 to provide the opportunity for everyone in the community to play basketball, belong to a team and develop lifelong skills.
Our Core Values
Play
We welcome everyone - first timers, players, umpires, coaches, managers, parents, and volunteers — regardless of age, ability, or experience. Good sportsmanship, teamwork, and mutual respect define how we want to interact.
Belong
We strive to improve the well-being of our members through their participation in our Basketball club. We are committed to a respectful and fair environment for everyone and behaviours that undermine the dignity of any player, umpire, coach, or volunteer will not be tolerated.
Develop
We strive to create a community where players feel happy, healthy, and supported — building positive memories, lasting friendships, and a lifelong love of basketball and community involvement.
Meet Our Dedicated Committee
Our committee volunteer their time to nurture the basketball community in Margaret River.
