Keep in mind Mustangs is run by volunteers. We have jobs, kids and our own activities to work around, so it may take some time for us to respond. Speaking of volunteers…
VOLUNTEER
We would love you to get involved with our Club. Apart from coaches and team managers, we need volunteers to help with team selection, uniforms, marketing, events, social media and club administration. It’s easy- simply submit our Volunteer Expression of Interest Form and someone will reach out to have a chat and see how we can best work together.
GET INVOLVED THIS SEASON… you will be so glad you did!

WINTER 2026 AGE GROUPS
Age groups are determined based on date of birth with cut-off dates differing depending on the competition.
Playing outside your age group
- Up an age group: it is possible for a player to play in the age group above their correct age (eg. U09 by date of birth can play U11s); please note this on the registration form
- Up two age groups: it is possible for a player to play in the age group 2 above their correct age (eg. U09 by date of birth can play U13s), but this requires the parent or guardian to sign a waiver before they play*
- Down an age group: it is possible to apply for permission for a player to play in the age group below their correct age, but this usually requires supporting documentation from a medical professional
* email registrar@whitehorsebasketball.org.au to discuss
