Covid 19 Update – Lockdown

With tonight’s announcement Basketball WA has issued the following update for the next 4 days:

𝐂𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐃𝟏𝟗 𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 

Dear Basketball WA Community,

As detailed in the WA Governments announcement at 8PM this evening, the Perth and Peel regions will go into a mandatory lockdown for    4 days – 12:01 Tuesday (29 June) to 12:01 Saturday (3rd July).

This lockdown means:
• ALL Community sport cancelled / postponed (Domestic, WABL & NBL1 West training)
• NBL1 West games scheduled for Friday will be postponed (further information will be sent in the coming days)
• Basketball centres will be closed during this period
• Basketball WA offices will be closed with staff working remotely

We expect a further Government announcement later in the week and will then liaise with our stakeholders and Associations on the plans moving forward.

At this stage, we are hopeful basketball will resume normal operations on Saturday with no additional changes to our NBL1 West and WABL fixtures. We understand this is a frustrating time for many members and supporters; however, we will do our best to keep you updated as we learn more.

Our community’s safety and health are a priority, so we will continue to follow the latest guidelines and requirements.

Please ensure you follow the guidelines on the WA Government website. https://www.wa.gov.au/

Take care and stay safe basketball family
