Based in Wendouree and operating out of venues such as Selkirk Stadium, they run domestic basketball competitions for juniors and seniors, development programs, school holiday camps, and high‑performance pathways. Basketball Ballarat is also home to the elite Ballarat Miners and NBL1 Miners teams, and manages game nights, clinics, venue hire, and community engagement programs across the region.

A charge from Basketball Ballarat may appear on your bank statement for a variety of reasons, including registration fees for domestic competitions, Basketball Victoria registration processed via the association, game or season fees, development programs or holiday camps, Miners game tickets, event or tournament entries, merchandise purchases, or court/venue hire. Some charges may be one‑off payments (such as a camp or a single event), while others may be recurring if you have set up instalment payments for season fees or memberships. You may also see a charge connected to online bookings made through their website or registration platforms linked to Basketball Ballarat.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why was I charged by Basketball Ballarat even though I only registered my child for a local team?

Many junior and senior players are registered for both a domestic competition and, in some cases, a governing body registration (such as Basketball Victoria) processed through Basketball Ballarat. When you register your child, the competition fees, association fees, and sometimes a season or annual insurance/registration component can all be charged at once. These will typically show on your bank statement under Basketball Ballarat or a related payment gateway.

What are the common charge amounts I might see from Basketball Ballarat?

Common charges include season or competition fees, game fees, development programs, and camp registrations, which can range from modest weekly competition fees to higher one‑off amounts for multi‑day camps or programs. If you’ve purchased Miners game tickets or merchandise, those will usually appear as smaller, single charges. For exact pricing of current programs and competitions, refer to the Fees or Competitions section on ballaratbasketball.com or your registration confirmation email.

Could this be a recurring or instalment payment for Basketball Ballarat fees?

Yes. When registering for a season, program, or membership, you may have chosen an instalment or payment plan rather than paying in full. In that case, you’ll see scheduled recurring charges on the dates outlined in your registration or payment agreement. You can review or adjust your payment plan by logging into the registration portal linked from ballaratbasketball.com or by contacting the Basketball Ballarat office for assistance.

How do I cancel or change a Basketball Ballarat registration or program booking?

Cancellation and change options depend on the specific competition or program. For ongoing competitions, you generally need to contact Basketball Ballarat administration as early as possible—preferably before the season or program starts—to discuss withdrawal and any applicable fees. For camps, clinics, and events, check the terms in your confirmation email or on the event page; then email or call the office to request cancellation, transfer to another session, or a credit where permitted by their policy.

How can I request a refund or query a duplicate charge from Basketball Ballarat?

If you believe you’ve been charged twice or incorrectly, first compare the charge with your registration receipts and any family member accounts linked to your card. Then contact Basketball Ballarat directly via the contact form or email listed on ballaratbasketball.com, or by calling the office during business hours, and provide transaction details (date, amount, last 4 digits of card). Their admin team can verify the payment, correct allocation of fees, and, where appropriate under their refund and withdrawal policies, process a refund or credit to your account.

Why do I see a small or pending charge from Basketball Ballarat on my statement?

Occasionally, when you update your card details or start a new online registration, the payment gateway used by Basketball Ballarat may place a small temporary authorization on your card to verify it. This appears as a pending charge and is typically released automatically within a few business days. If the pending amount later disappears or is not finalized, it was only an authorization hold and not an actual payment.

How do I contact Basketball Ballarat about a charge on my bank statement?

Visit ballaratbasketball.com and go to the Contact or About section to find the current office phone number and email address. When you contact them, include your full name, the name of the player (if different), the date and amount of the charge, and any registration or invoice numbers from your confirmation emails. This information allows the admin team to quickly locate the transaction, explain what it relates to, and help resolve any billing concerns.

Can someone else’s Basketball Ballarat activity be charged to my card?

Yes, this can happen if you registered a family member, allowed your card to be used for a team or club registration, or saved your card details in a shared account. Team managers or parents sometimes pay multiple players’ fees with a single card, which will all appear under Basketball Ballarat. If you don’t recognize the name attached to a registration, ask family members, your team manager, or club contact before disputing the transaction with your bank.
