What is the Community Foundation?
The Newcastle Basketball Community Foundation exists to make sure every young person aged 17 years and under has the chance to get involved in basketball, no matter their circumstances.
The Foundation provides grant funding to help cover costs like registration, uniforms, or other basketball-related expenses. Our goal is to reduce the barriers so that more kids can play, coach, or referee in our community.
Who Can Apply for Funding?
If you are school-aged and currently playing, coaching, or refereeing in a Newcastle Basketball competition, you may be eligible to apply for support from the Foundation.
How to Apply
Just complete the online form and tell us how funding could help you with your basketball activities.
