The Whittlesea City Basketball Association was formed in 1992 with only a few Junior Domestic teams competing in schools in the area. The Competition then moved into the Mill Park Basketball Stadium. The Junior Domestic then grew and a Senior Domestic Competition which plays Sunday through to Thursday evenings was soon part of the Program.  The success of this tournament surprised everyone as we had only been going for 9 months. The tournament has continued every year since with great representation from metropolitan and regional Victoria.

Young Basketballers, aged from U8 to U20, swarmed around the courts at Mill Park and Diamond Valley. teams came from Eltham, Craigieburn, Whitehorse, Thomastown and Country Victoria. In 1993 the WCBA won the Award from BV for the Greatest Membership Increase. A few years down the track the Championship Program was formed. We had both Boys and Girls teams, a Women’s WCVIBL team and also a CVIBL Men’s Team. These teams then became part of the Big V Competition.

In June 1993 the WCBA had their inaugural Junior Tournament with 108 Teams. Today we have approximately 330 Junior Domestic teams, 170 Senior Domestic teams, 24 Junior Championship Teams and 3 Senior Teams that play in the Big V Competition.
