Phoenix Bring Home Games Back to their Spiritual Home

South East Melbourne Phoenix will return to their spiritual home for three games in the NBL23 season.

A highlight for players and staff in years one and two, the Phoenix have been unable to play a game at the State Basketball Centre since 2021 due to Covid-19 restrictions.

The club will play their last three home games in the Heartland, against the Brisbane Bullets on Monday, January 16 at 7:30 pm, the Perth Wildcats on Sunday, January 22 at 2 pm, and finally Cairns Taipans on Australia Day Eve, January 25 at 7:30 pm.

(Phoenix fans will get to experience three SBC games in NBL23!)

“Each time we’ve played a home game at SBC, the game has sold out in less than five days,” CEO Tommy Greer said. “Our members, fans, players, and staff love this game each season; the atmosphere is electric. Don’t hesitate to buy tickets; these are the games not to miss and the games that will sell out.”

As in past SBC games, members will redeem tickets ahead of public ticket sales. Get your membership now to give yourself the best chance of being at a sold-out State Basketball Centre.

“We love playing out in the Heartland; the energy and atmosphere are amazing, the crowd is a sea of green, and it always makes it special for us players,” captain Kyle Adnam said.

“It feels like home.”
