  • Game Day Program Semi-Final 1
    2018-19 WNBL Semi-final 1 v FRIDAY 25 JANUARY 6 PM DOORS OPEN 7 PM TIP-OFF AIS ARENA Round 15 Recap The final round of the regular season turned out to be more of a thriller than expected, with three out of the top four teams having to go to overtime. For the UC Capitals, a double overtime put the team’s winning streak at risk as Bendigo Spirit put everything on the line for the final game of WNBL19. But Marianna Tolo (27 points, 10 rebounds) and Kelsey Griffin (24 points, 20 rebounds stepped up to get the UC Capitals over the line. UC Capitals head coach, Paul Goriss, said that the close call was a great way to prepare the team for finals. “We haven’t been that behind in the last ten weeks, so having a game where we had to fight harder than what we’ve been used to was great. Having a double overtime game is something we hadn’t had either, so there were great learning outcomes for us heading into finals,” said Goriss. The match against Bendigo was significant in other ways for UC Capitals star, Kelly Wilson, who received her WNBL life membership. Wilson has made her mark in the 2018/19 WNBL season, climbing up to sixth on the all-time games played list and third for all-time assists. Third and fourth place was also determined after a thrilling match between the Perth Lynx and Adelaide Lightning. As the Lynx fell one point short of a win after going to overtime, they have fallen to fourth on the ladder and will therefore be the UC Capitals’ opponent for the semi-finals.

  • 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.
