National Finals
[edit]The 2024 NBL1 National Finals took place at the University of the Sunshine Coast and Caloundra Indoor Stadium on the Sunshine Coast from Friday 16 August and Sunday 18 August.[45][46][47]
The 2023 defending champions, the Bendigo Braves women and the Knox Raiders men, earned automatic qualification into the 2024 NBL1 National Finals. Joining them in the tournament were the 2024 champions from each of the five conferences.[45][48] Due to multiple injuries sustained during the grand final series, the North women's champions the Rockhampton Cyclones withdrew from the National Finals. The Southern Districts Spartans subsequently took their place.[47][49][50]
The six women's and men's teams were ranked based on their regular season performances while factoring the number of games within a season and the number of NBL/WNBL players and imports within each conference. The three winners from day one, plus the highest ranked loser, progressed to the Semi Finals on day two. The winners of the Semi Finals then played in the Championship Games on day three.[51][52] The day one match-ups were announced on 11 August, with the women playing at UniSC Arena and the men playing at Caloundra Indoor Stadium.[53][54] The day two matches saw the women shift to Caloundra while the men shifted to UniSC.[55] The Championship Games on day three were both played at UniSC.[56]
Two South Conference teams were victorious in the Championship Games for the second straight year, with the Waverley Falcons women[57][58] and Knox Raiders men being crowned NBL1 National champions. The Raiders defended their 2023 title.[59][60]
