Camberwell Dragons Representative – Affiliated Domestic Clubs

Camberwell Dragons is the Representative basketball program operated by Camberwell District Basketball Association (CDBA). Many of our players come from our affiliated domestic clubs Koonung Comets, Balwyn Blazers and Whitehorse Mustangs, who play in the EDJBA. However, players from any domestic club or association are welcome to be a part of Camberwell Dragons. We do not require our players to play domestic basketball with one of our affiliated clubs, but we do require all junior players to participate in domestic basketball as well. Please contact our affiliated basketball clubs if you want to play domestic basketball.

EDJBA

The Eastern Districts Junior Basketball Association (EDJBA) is the largest junior competition in Australia, boasting more than 1000 teams and almost 10,000 participants. It is an all-inclusive Association that prides itself on providing an exceptional basketball competition suitable for all playing abilities. Its focus is on participation in a safe and enjoyable environment.

The EDJBA has 19 clubs/associations (Member Clubs) who provide the participants for the Association. They each vary in size, location and philosophy, ensuring a right fit for you. The Member Clubs are spread from Eltham through to Nunawading and Park Orchards through to Collingwood.

The EDJBA feels strongly about providing an opportunity for all participants to be exposed to core values such as teamwork, leadership, commitment, confidence, sportsmanship, respect, healthy choices and, most importantly, developing lifelong friendships. The EDJBA is made up of families who want to support their children, and we provide many areas for involvement.
