Playball is an after-school basketball competition for primary school aged children (Years 1 to 6). With 20 teams across all year levels, Toorak Basketball Club is one of the premier clubs in the Playball competition.
The competition runs year round across the four school terms (not during school holidays). The competition effectively runs two seasons: 'Season one' runs across terms 1 and 2. 'Season two' runs across terms 3 and 4.
Depending on numbers, we accept new registrations for season one until February and season two until early August.
For grade 1 players, there is no competition in Term 1. The teams attend training and practice matches to learn the game and get familiar with environment. Competition for grade one players commences in term 2.
