Broomball suspended
Hi All,
As most of you have seen, indoor sporting venues have been forced to close. From today under government direction we find all ice rinks shut.
This means all Broomball is suspended immediately. We will resume once the IceArenA can open it's doors again, and we will keep you informed.
In regards to fees, the committee will discuss with regards to the payments of the last 3 games of Mens and Womens that have been cancelled, and let members know once we have an outcome.
Please stay safe, be smart, practice social distancing, isolate and be clean. But ensure you stay connected, and do not be alone during this time. Everyone is only a message or call away. Happy to have a cider through face time!
Thank you for your continued support of Broomball in SA, and we will see each other out on the ice soon!
Please reach out if you have any questions.
Kate Irvine and Christine Filsell

Tuesday Broomball, Nationals update and Covid 19
Dear BASA members,
Due to the recent Covid-19 updates, Broomball Nationals have been cancelled.
Local Broomball is still going ahead, but we will be following Health SA updates and keep members informed. No one will be able to borrow the loan gear unless they bring wipes to clean it before and after use.
We are also implementing the following:
Local level Broomball
Broomball Australia recommends all members (players, team staff, spectators) of broomball associations and leagues implement (at a minimum) the below set of actions for upcoming training sessions and matches:
- Replace handshaking at the start and conclusion of games with (for example) simply tapping sticks on the ground, fist pump with gloves on.
- Use labelled water bottles. These must be strictly single person use. Avoid use of communal water bottles.
- Mouth-guards should be washed after each game, followed by cleaning of hands.
- Continue to cover nose and mouth with tissue or flexed elbow when coughing or sneezing.
- Keep 1.5m distance from anyone that is coughing or sneezing.
- Use alcohol-based hand wash where available
- All players and officials should wash their hands with soap and water and dry with paper towel prior to and after games.
- Gloves should be worn when attending to players with injuries – especially against blood exposure but also to prevent contact with mouth-guards.
- Keep your kit together to stop cross contamination with garments and other pieces of protective gear (ie don’t share gloves, jerseys, elbow or knee guards and in particular helmets.
Any member with flu-like symptoms should self-exclude from playing, training and spectating at the first sign of the symptoms and seek medical advice.
Further advice on the Coronavirus COVID-19 can be found from the following recommended sources:
- Australian Government Department of Health (health.gov.au) or for general advice regarding COVID-19, call the Australian Government’s Coronavirus Health Information Line on 1800 020 080
All members of the broomball community should note that this is an evolving situation and advice could change at any time. Broomball Australia will endeavour to update the broomball community as it is relevant.

To all,
Broomball is back for 2020.
The mixed season is fast coming to and end and with the 2020 Broomball Australia Nationals in April the mixed season will give way to the Men's and Women's competition up till the Nationals. Mixed will return there after through the rest of the year.
Teams and Captains note your game times and team duty responsibilities to ensure you are ready to play at the posted time and have referees and scorebox persons ready to take charge of the game.
Note that there is supposed to be a maximum of three persons only in the score box so kindly respect this rink policy.
We also have the 2020 IFBA World Broomball Championships in early November, so the chance to play broomball at the highest levels available is certainly on the cards this year.
If you have an interest in attending either let the comittee know soon so you can be included in any information that is distributed.

Broomball Nationals training tomorrow night will be a similar structure to the last week.
7:30pm-8:15pm Men have the whole ice to do as they please (drills/game plays/scratchie)
8:00pm-8:15pm Women's Whiteboard Session (please be ready to go as we will be going straight on the ice after)
8:15pm -8:40pm(ish) the Women will take one end of the ice for drills etc and the men can take the other half of the ice, I suggest maybe practice 1 on 1s with Steve in goals.
8:40pm-9:00pm the Women finish with a scratchie against what ever guys are happy to stick around for a last little run. We'll try fit in 2x10min halves for the girls.
As usual if you can bring a red, light and dark jersey, cyas there!

It is often said and monitored that the rink policy is to have no more than three in the score box at any one time.
That it is nice and warm in there and at times a great place to chat with friends is not what the score box is all about.
Certainly broomball is a social sport and that is encouraged but with all the expensive equipment that is also there the policy was developed to limit persons but still have access to manage the score board.
Therefore we ask that with each team duty that the maximum is limited to just the three or we may find ourselves without access to the room.
(note referees are allowed to enter above and beyond the limit)
25-Mar-19
All those playing Nationals need to attend, all other members are encouraged and welcomed to attend so we have another team to play against.
7.00pm Women's whiteboard training
7.30 - 9.00 pm Ice time (including some scratch matches)
Please bring red, white and blue (non-nationals players) jerseys.
11-Mar-19
There is NO Broomball Tuesday 12/3 due to rink maintenance. Round 1 will continue on Tuesday 19/3.
15-Jan-19
The 2019 Summer Broomball season is set to kick off from 7:15pm next Tuesday 22nd January. The schedule is now available on the website - please check your teams game & duty times.
Remember the BASA no pay - no play policy is being enforced this season - make sure you have registered to your team via the members portal AND paid all your outstanding fees or made arrangements with the treasurer.
There are again 7 teams entered so there will be 3 games per week and teams will have byes.
The season is two rotations, with a large break between rotations to allow for some rink upgrades that are scheduled to occur and Men's/Women's Competition + Training in the lead up to the 2019 Australian Championships. Details to follow.
Remember to sign up to the BASA Sharks team online if you would like to go to Nationals this year. You will need your BASA login for this. More info on the event can be found here.
Good luck to all teams and players this season!
See you on the ice!
