ENROLLMENTS & WAITING LISTS
Our sessions run all year around and you can enrol at any time. You will only be charged for those sessions in that month. If the session is full, you can go on the waiting list for the session/s you would like to join. Current members can only opt out of the program between school terms, at which point those on the waiting list will have first chance to take that space based on when you joined the waiting list.
FEES
The cost per session is $22 and parents can choose to pay for the season in one lump sum at the start of lessons or be billed per calendar month ($22 times the number of classes in a month). We break for school and public holidays where you will not be charged.
NEW LITTLE BALLERS: We have a one off fee for a "Starter Pack" of $55 which covers a Singlet, size 5 basketball, pump and shipping to your address.

Learn to play FAQ:
We are going on holidays, can I get a refund for the sessions that my child won't attend?
Since we still have ongoing costs associated with keeping your child enrolled in training or comps, we cannot offer refunds for missing sessions due to holidays or planned absences.
My kid is injured and won't be playing for the rest of the season, what do I do?"
If your child is unable to play due to medical reasons, you will need to provide a medical certificate. We can offer a credit equal to the missed portion of the program for the following season. Refunds will not be offered mid season.
NEW members - prior to the season commencing If you are new to EBL and the new season hasn't started yet and you give us 7 days notice. We offer a refund for your classes you have paid for less $25 admin fee. We do not offer refunds on any starter packs sent out via mail. That includes uniforms, balls, pumps and equipment.
My child says he/she doesn't want to play anymore, can I get my money back?
Please call the office and we can discuss the reasons your child is not enjoying the experience and we can see what other options there are that he/she may enjoy. Cases will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
