Costing
2014
Academy Squad: $350
Development Squad: $250
This includes a Berwick College uniform, all tournament fees and the expert coaching.We have been able to keep our costings to a minimum as our program is predominantly ran by qualified teachers with basketball expertise.
Costings may change in the future especially in the Year 9/10 program as students gain extra qualifications such as Refereeing and Coaching accreditation, however, Gerard is an approved Basketball Victoria Coaching presenter and can run the coaching courses at school.
Enrolment Process

We are hopeful ALL students trying out for
the academy will be accepted into the
program.The program will be
levelled, so each participating student is receiving coaching to their current abilities.
