Tournaments
Where teams bond, grow, and rise to the moment.
Bayside Warriors supports its teams—particularly Rep Dev and advanced domestic squads—to participate in select basketball tournaments throughout the year. These events provide players with an intense, immersive basketball experience, helping fast-track development, foster team chemistry and expose players to a higher level of competition.
Tournaments typically run across 2 to 3 days and involve 4–5 qualifying games, with additional semi-finals and grand finals for teams that progress. This concentrated schedule demands focus, adaptability and resilience—skills that benefit every player.
While most tournaments cater to representative teams, many also welcome strong domestic teams. We actively encourage eligible teams to enter where appropriate and our Rep Dev teams are particularly well suited to represent Bayside Warriors at these events.
