City of Sydney Basketball Association

The City of Sydney Basketball Association is a non for profit community organisation focused on developing the game of basketball in the area. Players are drawn from a wide geographical area from the eastern and south eastern suburbs, inner city and the inner west.

Although located in a working class and industrial area of Sydney, Alexandria Stadium has always drawn from all socio-economic groups within the City.
