Sydney Flames

The Sydney Flames are an Australian professional basketball team based in Sydney, New South Wales. The Flames compete in the Women's National Basketball League (WNBL) and play their home games at Quaycentre.

The club began as the Bankstown Bruins in the 1981 WIBC season. The Bruins were WNBL runners-up in 1982 with a grand final defeat to St Kilda. They competed as the Bankstown Bruins until 1988, when for the 1989 season they were renamed the Sydney Bruins. In 1991, they were renamed the Sydney Flames. In 2000, they were renamed the Sydney Panthers.

Formerly known as the Sydney Uni Flames, the team rebranded in August 2022 to have a new look, new colours (changing from navy and gold to silver and black) and a new home venue.

The Flames have won four WNBL championships, in 1993, 1997, 2001 and 2017. They have also finished as runners-up a further 10 times.
