Reporting to the Basketball Australia Board are five strategic commissions that will assist in governing the sport. These commissions are led by a member of the Basketball Australia Board and make strategic recommendations to Basketball Australia.

Members of each commission were 50 per cent nominated through an open and inclusive nomination process, with the balance directly appointed by the board. (There is a different nomination process for the NBL Commission).
