Basketball Victoria and the state coaching staff would like to invite athletes to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) for the 2025 Ivor Burge State Men’s and Women’s Teams.

The Ivor Burge Championships are the National Basketball Championships for athletes with an Intellectual Disability. You will need to have completed appropriate IQ testing and have an Ausrapid Number to be eligible to nominate.

Athletes selected into the state team will compete for the Ivor Burge Cup at the National Championship held from the 28th January - 2nd February 2025 in Ballarat.
