Sign-up days will be held at the club this Friday, August 1, from 5.30pm-6.30pm, and on Saturday, August 2, from 10.30am-11.30am.
The club will be trialling split competitions for boys and girls on Friday nights, with the season kicking off on August 15.
Competitions will be run for under 14s, 16s, 18s and 20s, though some age groups may be combined depending on numbers.
Registration is $70 for those under 18, and $80 for those over 18.
“If any of the girls out there were too scared to play against the guys, now is your chance to play just against the girls,” organiser Kerrie Graham said.
“This will be a trial for the club, so sign up while you can.”
While same-sex competitions will be trialled at a junior level, the Wednesday night seniors’ competition, beginning on September 3, will be mixed.
Registrations are $80, with sign-ups to take place at the same times for the season beginning on September 3.
Graham said the mixed competition would require at least two females per team, with no more than three males per team allowed on the court at a time.
The ever-popular under 12s and hoops competitions again feature, and will be $70 per player.
