To apply for membership or a trial training session, you can register via our Digital Registration Form. The information you provide will be processed immediately in our administration, and you will receive an automatic confirmation accompanied by an attachment containing an authorization form. Your membership is only final once you have signed and returned this authorization form to the membership administration. If you would like to get acquainted with hockey first and participate in a maximum of two trial training sessions, that is of course possible! Naturally, you do not need to return an authorization form yet; you can simply see if playing hockey at Basko suits you. So, fill out the digital registration form (even if you only want to get acquainted), and your request will be forwarded to the coordinator of the appropriate age category. This coordinator will then contact you regarding the possibilities for trial training.
