By BACT Media Unit – 24 February 2025

A much loved program, designed to get mum’s and bub’s active, socialising and on-court, returns to Basketball ACT at Belconnen Basketball Stadium this March.

The Mum’s & Bub’s Basketball program, which returns to Wednesday morning from 5 March 2025, provides a regular on-court session for Mum’s looking to get back on court, Mum’s who are interested in developing their fitness and skills, and Mum’s looking for a fun way to meet new people and learn new skills.

While Mum is on-court, Bub’s will be engaged with games, toys, craft and fun (with a little bit of basketball thrown in).

And to top it all off, a post-session morning tea is provided, for participants to make new friends.

The program aimed at increasing female participation in the game of basketball, has always been met with keen interest historically, and the 2025 version looks like it will follow suit, according to Program Coordinator, Carlie McAlister.

“We created Mums & Bubs Basketball program because we believe every Mum deserves a space to feel strong, supported and connected.  We wanted to create a program that allows mums to get moving, while also spending time their littles ones and building friendships that last beyond the court. This program is more than just basketball – it’s a way for mums to take some time for themselves, feel empowered and walk away with new friends and memories”, said McAlister.
