Welcome to the Tigers.

You've accepted your spot — here's what happens next. A few quick things, best done in the order below.

Do these first

Three steps, in this order

Each step unlocks the next: no registration means no number, and no number means no uniform order.

Register first Due COB 25 Sep 26

Before anything else, complete your registration on Teaming for the season ahead. Your acceptance confirmed the ‘Squad’ your player has been selected for — see your welcome email for the full steps.

Registering means club-wide correspondence can reach you and keep you informed as we get the season started.

Register on Teaming southerntigers.teaming.com.au

Get your player number

Once you're registered, email admin@southerntigers.com.au with your player's full name, age group and year of birth and we'll allocate a number.

We can't assign a number to a player profile until registration is complete, and you'll need your number before ordering a uniform — so this is the next thing to sort.

Uniform update

We've phased out the Blackchrome uniforms and are required to be wearing the Apelle uniform (via our Apelle Store). Keep this in mind when considering second-hand uniform options.

Order your uniform

Once your number's confirmed, order the reversible singlet + shorts through our Apelle Store.

Not sure on sizing? There's a size run to try on in the foyer at Morphett Vale Basketball Stadium, available during all opening hours and training times.

Still waiting on uniform when the season starts?

Alert your Team Manager and Coach. They'll work with the Committee and other volunteers to coordinate a loan kit, or seek a written exemption from Basketball South Australia to get your player started.

Good to know

Then, the rest of the season

Training

First session details for your squad / age group should already be in your registered email.

Further training schedules will come from your Age Group Coordinator, Coach or Team Manager via WhatsApp.

Communication

WhatsApp is the platform used within Tigers teams and is where day-to-day info lands.

Anything official (invoices, club-wide news) comes via email, so make sure your details are current on Teaming. We're also on Facebook and Instagram at @southerntigers_.

Scoring roster

Every family takes a turn on the score table across the season (except the Coach's and Team Manager's families). No experience needed — we'll support you on the score bench.

We run a scoring training session before the season starts, so watch this space for additional dates.

FAQ

Questions families ask

Registration & player numbers

When does registration need to be done?

By COB 25 Sep 26. Registering means club-wide correspondence can reach you and keep you informed as the season gets started.

Why can't I get a number before I've registered?

Why do I need my number before ordering a uniform?

Can I buy a second-hand uniform?

We've phased out the Blackchrome uniforms and are required to be wearing the Apelle uniform (via our Apelle Store). So if you're looking at second-hand options, check it's the current Apelle uniform.

Training & communication
