2023 NBL1 National Finals at HBF Arena

The 2023 NBL1 National Finals took place at HBF Arena in Perth between Friday 18 August and Sunday 20 August. [29] [30] [31] [32] It served as the second annual National Finals after the inaugural event took place in 2022. [33]

The 2022 defending champions, the Warwick Senators women and the Rockingham Flames men, earned automatic qualification into the 2023 NBL1 National Finals. [34] Had either team made their respective 2023 conference grand final, their opponents would have been guaranteed a spot in the National Finals. [35] The Senators women finished the 2023 West season in fifth place and lost in the semi finals while the Flames men finished the 2023 West season in first place and lost in the preliminary finals. [18] Joining them in the tournament were the champions from each of the five conferences. [34]

The six women's and men's teams faced off on Friday and Saturday for a spot in the Championship Games on Sunday. Each team played two preliminary games in which they generated ranking points, with the top two ranked women's and men's teams then playing in the Championship Game. [34]

Ranking points over the first two days included three points for a win, one point for each quarter won, and half a point for tied quarters. [34] Zero points were awarded for winning overtime periods. [36] The schedule for Friday was determined by a random draw. On Saturday, the highest point scorer from Friday played fifth place, the second highest played fourth place, and the third highest played sixth place. On Sunday, the top two point scores over Friday and Saturday played in the Championship Game. [34] [36]

Both South Conference teams were victorious in the Championship Games, with the Bendigo Braves women and the Knox Raiders men being crowned NBL1 National champions. [37] [38]
