Our History


Runcorn Rockets was established in 1999 and was one of the founding clubs of the South West Metro Basketball Association.


Rockets has consistently been one of the largest and most successful clubs within the Association.

The club was formed to encourage children and youth in the surrounding area to participate in basketball with an emphasis on fun, personal development and team spirit.


Home for us is theStadium at Runcorn State High School on Hill Road Runcorn, however, we do have teams training at other venues in the surrounding area.

We currently have over 600+ members and continue to grow every year. The Runcorn Rockets Club fields’ teams in all age groups - from the Under 8's Miniballers boys and girls, to U18 men & women and Seniors.

Rockets typically fields between 50and 60 teams playing in the competitions on Friday night and Saturday morning for youth teams, Tuesday night Ladies and Wednesday and Sunday evening Senior Mens.


We have no geographic restriction on membership, and are always open to new player/coach/manager enquiries.
