Tryout Registration

To register properly you must:

Go to the Play HQ Try Outs registration, complete all the information requested and at the end of the registration process
you will be required to pay the $100 tryout registration fee.

The tryout registration fee covers administration and court hire at MSAC throughout the tryout process. No exceptions.
Fill in all the details correctly.

Go back over what you have written and check that there has been no red error message on any of the items requested

All players Trying Out will have to pay $100 via Credit Card. The payment system is at the end of the entry form.

When players type in your date of birth, the system will calculate your 2024 age group and the age group for Try Outs.
If your age group is not what you expected, the machine is not wrong, it’s calculating your age group for the following (2024) year. In basketball, everybody has to comply with this FIBA rule.

If and when you have finished registering properly, an e-mail will be sent to you:

NOTE: Communications / Emergency Contact Email
We need to be able to contact you on short notice, in case a change to any of the session times are altered.

Please ensure contact details on your registration are correct as you will be added into a Stack TeamApp group
on Monday 25th September.


TRY OUTS – On the Day
If you have properly registered, your name will be on our registrations list. You will be assigned a Try Out number.

You will received an e-mail prior to the first try out with your assigned number. Please turn up with the number
on your left arm and right calf.

You will be required to sign in and will be advised where to go at the sign in desk.

WARNING
In past years we have got a number of wrong e-mails and wrong mobile numbers listed on the registration forms.
Please check and double-check. It is important that we are able to quickly contact you and your family.
