Frequently Asked Questions

How do I notify a forfeit?

From Sunday through to Thursday, please contact the club and we will notify the SBPA. If it is a late forfeit (e.g. Friday or Saturday) then please contact the SPBA directly via phone.

Please note a late notification on a Saturday may result in an additional fee.

Do I need to pay a fee to be a team manager?

No fee is required by the Southern Peninsula Basketball Association for you to be a team manager. However, you will be required to register on PlayHQ as the team manager each season.

Do I need a Working with Children's Check?

Yes you will require a Working with Children’s Check. Without this check you will not be able to be a team manager and your team will not be able to play. Please ensure that this remains valid at all times.

How should I collect game fees?

This is at your discretion. You may choose to:

Each player brings a certain amount of cash each week.
Everyone pays enough to cover a full team game fees at the start of the season to cover the same number of games as there is players, before paying the same amount again. This could be to the team manager or into a bank account opened specifically for the teams games money. Team Manager would be required to track this themselves.
Use Team Play.
Organising the score roster to coincide with payments. I.e. It is x players families turn to score so they cover the games money that week.

Who will score the games?

A volunteer is required each week from each team to score for the game. We encourage team mangers to start a roster so that this is shared evenly among families. The scorer must be aged 14 years of age or older.

Who do I contact if there is an issue?

From time-to-time issues may arise that may cause anger or concern. It is important that these issues are raised and dealt with at the earliest possible stage. It is important that everyone acts in a manner that is respectful in order to have sensible and productive resolution of disagreements.

If issues are unable to be resolved, you may wish to escalate this to the club. Please email
info@beachcombersbasketball.club.

Is there a Facebook group I can join to talk to other Beachcombers team managers?

The club has a private Coach Team Manager Page on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/beachcomberscoachesandteamanagers

If I am away, who acts as team manager?

When you are not available to attend a game, or you are going away, it is important that your team manager duties are delegated. When delegating your tasks, please make sure that you inform the person what their responsibilities are while you are unavailable.

As a club we have recently implemented a ‘Third Person” who is compliance checked who will be able to step in when required.

As a team manager, who should I contact with questions?

We request that parents, team managers and coaches follow the this communication structure with the club and the SPBA. This is at the request of the SPBA.

Step by step:

Step 1: Player/Parent should first contact team manager or coach.
Step 2: Team Manager/Coach should contact club committee in first instance (not the SBPA).
Step 3: Club Committee will contact Southern Peninsula Basketball Association (SPBA).
