The Casey Basketball Association has frozen out the ‘for profit’ Clyde North Ravens Basketball Club.

The association says it will hold the tribunal hearing over an alleged ‘integrity matter’.

“Basketball Victoria will continue to assist Casey Basketball Association throughout this process and support any further investigation by the association or by Victoria Police,” Basketball Victoria said.

“The Casey Basketball Association Board has ruled they will not accept future entries from the current ‘for-profit’ club unless it is reformed as a not-for-profit entity. Several Casey Board members and some parents from the Clyde North Ravens have indicated they would help in setting up a new not-for-profit club and Basketball Victoria would also provide support for this change.

“Basketball Victoria will not make any further statements at this time.”

A representative from the Ravens declined to comment due to the matter being under investigation.
