September 1, 2025

🏀 VJBL 2026 Competition Restructure Announced! 🏀

Basketball Victoria has confirmed a major restructure to the Victorian Junior Basketball League beginning in 2026, with the launch of the Regional League (RL).

This new format replaces the RDL trial and creates a clearer three-tier pathway for junior players:
1️⃣ Victorian Championship (VC) – Elite state-level competition
2️⃣ Victorian Junior League (VJL) – Graded divisions
3️⃣ Regional League (RL) – Geographical pools designed to reduce travel

✨ What changes for each age group?
🔹 Under 12 – VC, VJL 1–5, RL (geographic pools)
🔹 Under 14 – VC, VJL 1–8, RL (geographic pools)
🔹 Under 16 – VC, VJL 1–5+, RL (geographic pools)
🔹 Under 18 – VC, VJL 1–5+, RL (geographic pools)
