The Senior competition is divided into Geographical Leagues that run round-robin competitions feeding into a finals system.  You will need to indicate which League you are in when you nominate.

The competition is known as the “School Sport WA Secondary Champion Schools Basketball Competition’.

Finals will be held in two divisions.

The All Schools Division is a knockout final system with the top two schools in each League eligible to enter.  Three schools may be invited from larger leagues to fill places that may be available if schools in smaller leagues do not take their place in the finals.

The Championship Division will be conducted as a Round-Robin with finals.  Specialised sports schools, schools from the private educational sector and schools who have nominated for the National Schools Basketball Championships in December will be invited to participate in this division.

Shields and medallions will be awarded to the winning and runner-up schools in each division.

SCHOOLS MAY ONLY PARTICIPATE IN ONE DIVISION OF THE FINALS
