WBA back in action!

November 26, 2020

Organised sport is BACK in Wyndham.

The latest lifting of restrictions by the state government, community sport for both senior and junior competitions is back on court.

Team sports like basketball and netball play a critical role within the Wyndham community with massive numbers competing in a serious nature and casually.

Western Leisure Services, Wyndham Basketball Association and Wyndham Netball Association are excited to be able to again provide these competitions to our community and are all committed to doing so in a COVID-safe environment.

Competitions will look different, with player safety at the forefront of our organisation’s minds and number restrictions within the stadium still in place.
