Phoenix to Head Back to Gippsland in NBL24

The Phoenix will take on the Illawarra Hawks in Traralgon on Saturday, December 16 at 5.30pm.

The Phoenix will look to extend their unbeaten run in front of the Gippsland community, having triumphed over Cairns in 2022 and Sydney in 2023. 

The fixture will be a joint-venture between the South East Melbourne Phoenix, Latrobe City Council and the Victorian Government.

South East Melbourne would like to acknowledge the support of the Victorian Government through the Significant Sporting Events Program.

Phoenix CEO Tommy Greer expressed gratitude to the local community and the hospitality they provide every time the team arrives.

“For our Phoenix players and staff, heading to GRISS for a regular-season game is a real highlight of the fixture.” Greer said.

“We thank both the Latrobe City Council and Victorian Government for their involvement and look forward to maintaining this relationship long into the future.”

(Pheonix will play in Traralgon for the third season in a row against the Illawarra Hawks on December 16th.)

Members will be able to redeem tickets from November 6, with general public tickets available from November 7.
