Basketball Ballarat is a not-for-profit, community-based organisation with a voluntary Committee of Management established in 1966 to “actively promote basketball and other recreational activities and encourage participation by providing facilities, programs and services for all.”   In 1984 our elite teams department was formed to “actively identify and develop regional basketball talent to encourage enjoyable participation at an elite level in their home community within the limitations of a sound financial base.”   Our history is a great story of success for Ballarat including 10 championships between our men’s and women’s teams, the Miners and Rush, and countless tales of individual achievement. Our role has also expanded with a broad range of community service and mentoring programs.
