✂️THE MULLET IS COMING OFF!✂️

If you’re part of our association, chances are you know Hamish, and chances are you know him by his luscious mullet!😍

After four years of growing those locks, Hamish is taking the brave step of saying goodbye to the mullet and shaving his head for Hair with Heart, raising funds for Variety – the Children’s Charity. ❤️

It’s a pretty big deal when your hair has become that iconic… but Hamish is putting it all on the line to help Australian kids who are sick, experiencing disadvantage or living with disability, including children experiencing permanent hair loss due to conditions such as cancer and alopecia.

If you can, please get behind Hamish with a donation. Every contribution, big or small, helps make a difference.

EOI’s extended out until 13 September!

We’re looking to bring an inclusive basketball program to Wagga Wagga!

Wagga Wagga Basketball Association and Basketball NSW are exploring the opportunity to deliver a weekly, term-based basketball program for children, teenagers and adults with an intellectual impairment, Autism (ASD), Down Syndrome and people with all forms of neurodiversity.

Before launching the program, we’d love to hear from families, carers and participants to better understand the interest within the local community and help shape a program that best meets everyone’s needs.

Please complete the Expression of Interest form by 22 August 2026.
