Which membership should I select?

  • If you’re unsure it’s always best to check with your club in the first instance.
  • If your team is in the national league (SBC) please select Players, Coaches and Officials.
  • All other teams in local leagues such as SLBA select Local League and University.
  • Anyone in a university team please select Local League and University.
  • Volunteers at clubs still need membership but don’t have to pay for it with Volunteers and Recreational.
  • Anyone training with a team that doesn’t enter competitions such as pick up teams also get a free membership with Volunteers and Recreational.  
  • You do not need more than one membership. If you will be playing in both National and Local or University Leagues, the Players, Coaches and Officials membership covers all leagues.

Which competition should I select?

  • Selecting the wrong membership can mean you are prevented from playing for your team in competitions. If you do choose the wrong one, please email membership@basketball.scot to change it for you.
  • If your team is in the national league please select SBC, for which the Players, Coaches and Officials membership is needed.
  • You can select more than one competition if you play for more than one club in different leagues.
  • Just like membership if your club is in a Local League please select this option.
  • Anyone playing for University should select this option.

Why hasn't the "Forgotten Password" link worked?

  • The most common reason is the email address the account was set up with, was typed incorrectly or has been typed in with a capital at the beginning.
  • Memberships are often set up with a parent’s email or an old university email
  • If it still doesn’t come through, please email membership@basketball.scot

What do I do if I bought the wrong membership?

  • If you selected Local League and University but needed Players, Coaches and Officials, then go back into membership on your account, select the Players, Coaches and Officials membership and go through all the steps again.
