Sydney Flames fans asked for better game times – and the WNBL27 schedule delivers.
Tickets to all 10 Flames' home games are now on sale with a fan-friendly schedule making it easier than ever to get behind Sydney’s team.
Eight of the Flames’ 10 home games will be played on weekend afternoons, with most tipping off between 1pm and 3pm. The schedule also includes a Friday night clash and a 5pm game during the summer holiday period.
It means fewer late finishes, easier travel and more opportunities for families and young basketballers to see some of the best players in Australia – and the world – up close.
Ten home games. Two Sydney venues.
The Flames will play seven home games at Quaycentre, beginning with the season opener against Adelaide Lightning on Sunday, 18 October at 1pm.
The intimate venue brings fans close to the court and right into the action, with the home schedule featuring weekend afternoon games against Townsville, Perth, Canberra and Geelong.
The Flames will also take to Afterpay Arena for three huge double-headers alongside the reigning NBL champions, Sydney Kings.
Those games include a Sunday afternoon clash against Southside Melbourne Flyers, a school holiday double-header against the Tasmania Jewels and a January showdown with Bendigo Spirit.
A new-look Flames team ready to light it up
The schedule isn’t the only reason to get excited about the season ahead.
Head coach Renae Garlepp has assembled a fierce new roster including Chinese national team captain and Olympic medallist Shuyu Yang.
One of the biggest international signings in Flames history, Yang arrives in Sydney alongside Australian Opals Ally Wilson and Isabelle Bourne, Jaz Shelley, Charlise Dunn, Maya Dodson and Darcy Rees.
They join returning Flames Lauren Nicholson, Agnes Emma-Nnopu and Isabelle Morgan in a team built to play with speed, toughness and a relentless competitive edge.
