This year has a different look to previous seasons in the State Basketball League,  with the new format for NBL1 West, being an 18 week season replacing the 20 week SBL season and also includes themed fixtures rounds -women’s, indigenous and mental health.

NBL1 WEST 2021 season doesn’t see all teams play each other twice. The Hawks teams will play Wolves, Senators, Lightning, Redbacks, Willetton, Suns, Buccs, Eagles & Slammers twice, but  Rockingham, Cougars, Magic teams, only once throughout the regular season.            We will have 11 homes fixtures, 5 Friday night, 5 Saturday night and only 1 Sunday games for NBL1 West 2021 season.

The NBL1 finals series for 2021 will take the same shape as the AFL finals series, with the setup rewarding the top four with a double-chance over the three week finals.
