    The Breakers will play the Cairns Taipans away on December the fourth to kick off their ANBL basketball league campaign


    The club will again relocate across the Tasman next month for pre season and play all but two of their away games in the first half of the season.

    Coach Dan Shamir says it's a tough start but hopes there is light at the end of the tunnel.



    It's hoped the Trans tasman bubble will open in the New Year to allow the Breakers to play eight home games in Auckland and six around the country starting with the Brisbane Bullets on February the fidfth.
