Watch Them Shine... It’s the Tasmania Jewels!
A new era of Tasmanian basketball is here. The Tasmania Jewels are bringing elite women’s basketball back to the state, joining the WNBL for the 2026/27 season and giving Tasmania its first team in Australia’s premier women’s basketball competition in 30 years. Built to represent the whole island, the Jewels are ready to give Tasmanians another team to get behind – and the next generation of basketballers something to aspire to.
The Jewels also mark an exciting new chapter for Tasmanian basketball through the club’s One Club, Two Teams vision. Alongside the Tasmania JackJumpers, they’re helping create greater opportunities and pathways for female athletes to compete at the highest level, while continuing to grow the game and strengthen its connection with communities across the state.
Having proudly supported the JackJumpers since their inaugural season, Bulk Nutrients is excited to continue that relationship as a Foundation Partner of the Tasmania Jewels. Jewels players will be fuelled by Bulk Nutrients throughout the season, with our support extending across athlete wellbeing programs, match days and community initiatives. We’ve seen what the JackJumpers have achieved for basketball in Tasmania, and now we can’t wait to support the Jewels as they create a legacy of their own.
