Melbourne Basketball networking session - May 2026
About the Event
Join us for Melbourne’s most unique networking experience: a morning of basketball, fitness, and business connections. Presented by Brandon Burns & our good friends coming soon.....
This isn’t about competition, it’s about fun, fairness, and community. Safety is the key, so look out for your fellow player and we will distribute the teams with height and abilities. Networking first, dunking a distant second. :) To keep play easy and inclusive, all teams will be captained by a female player where possible.
After the game, continue building relationships with our popular lunch at The Bells Hotel, South Melbourne (separate ticket link below), featuring a very special guest speaker Rob Chapman, Executive Chairman of Chapman Capital & Adelaide Airport, former chairman of the Adelaide Crows, Director at Coopers Brewery, AFL MAX & Ultra Golf Championship.
Key Details
Court hire is generously sponsored by our good friends coming soon....
Ticket price: $6 – covers entry and participation.
No waiver, no play – waiver must be signed before you hit the court. See attached and we will have hard copies available on the day also.
Facilities: There are change rooms and showers on site, so you can freshen up after the session before heading over for lunch.
Make sure you get there a little early to stretch, warm-up and meet your fellow team members.

Also, bring a light and dark top if you can, so we can help avoid clashes with colours on the court.
