  • Lauren Jackson
    LAUREN JACKSON “It has always been an athlete’s dream to be in the Olympics and now it is mine”. Lauren Jackson, age 12. The line of people awaiting the opportunity to ask for a photograph or signature runs down the length of the basketball court and disappears out the door. It is the first home game for the Canberra Capitals in October 2012. The game is well over and most Caps players and staff have departed for the change room. Lauren Jackson did not play due to injury, but it made no difference to the crowd who were just excited that she was here, and would spend the WNBL season dressed in the blue and yellow Caps jersey. It would take over an hour for those on the end of the line to reach the figure sitting behind the desk, patiently signing, offering a few words and smiling a little awkwardly for photos – she is never truly comfortable when the attention is focused entirely on her. A large number were young girls, invariably dressed in an oversized no.15 singlet, eager to meet their sporting “shero”. They may not play basketball but live in a sports-mad nation though one which rarely accords sportswomen their due. For decades Lauren Jackson has been best in the world and that cannot be ignored. Lauren Elizabeth Jackson was born on 11 May 1981 in Albury, New South Wales, to Maree and Gary. If such exist, basketball genes filled the bloodstream of the new arrival. Maree Bennie had created records of her own whilst on a basketball scholarship at Louisiana State University.i Maree played for Australia from 1973 to 1980 and the sport also introduced her to Gary, who played for Australia in 1975.
