Ninnis it is, for the Lightning

The Adelaide Lightning are pleased to announce Scott Ninnis as head coach for the remainder of the WNBL25 season. A highly respected figure in Adelaide's basketball community, Ninnis brings a wealth of experience, strong leadership, and a fresh perspective to the team.

With a wealth of coaching experience and talent development expertise, Ninnis is determined to help the Adelaide Lightning reach new heights. "Basketball has always been a central part of my life, and I’m honoured to join the Lightning," Ninnis shared. “This is a proud club with a rich legacy, and I’m excited to guide the team as we strive for success together. It’s a fresh start and an opportunity to achieve something truly special,” he added. “I’m eager to collaborate with this exceptional group of athletes and coaching staff.”

Adelaide Lightning General Manager Steve Wren emphasised the importance of Scott’s appointment, stating, “Scott’s leadership comes at a critical time in our season as we refocus and align with our long-term vision for the team. We extend our gratitude to assistant coaches Matt Clake and Georgia Crouch for their professionalism and dedication in navigating the team through recent challenges. Their continued support remains invaluable as we prioritise the wellbeing of our players and maintain our push towards finals contention.”

The Adelaide Lightning invites fans and the community to rally behind the team as they embark on this exciting new chapter under Ninnis’ leadership. With his passion, experience, and determination, the future looks bright as the team strives for excellence on the court.

Good Games this weekend

1 vs 2
Perth with their full squad is going to give Bendigo a good run, hold Whitcombe to something under 30 and they are in with a chance.

3 vs 4
Sydney could consolidate their wins over the past few weeks or slide back into the pack, Townsville the same with 3 home games coming up, they looked good at times vs Bendigo but cannot afford another slow start. They looked in Sync after the departure of Cooke.

Adelaide with new Coach, see how that goes. Adelaide needs a lot more out of Talbot if they are to be taken seriously this season.
