Brisbane Bullets Unveil NBL25 Heritage Jersey

This year, the Brisbane Bullets are taking it back to where it all began. In celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Bullets’ iconic 1985 Championship victory, the team is proud to unveil its NBL25 Heritage Jersey— a tribute to the season that cemented the Brisbane Bullets' place as a dominant force in Australian basketball.

This year’s Heritage Jersey is more than just a uniform; it’s a piece of history reimagined. Inspired by the design worn during that unforgettable 1985 season, the jersey combines classic aesthetics with modern craftsmanship. The signature sash, a hallmark of the original kit, is brought to life with a special touch: the names of the players and coaching staff who played pivotal roles in that championship run are displayed within the sash, a reminder of their contributions to the club’s legacy.

In 1985, the Brisbane Bullets etched their name in the history books with their first NBL Championship. Led by legendary coach Brian Kerle and on-court stars like Leroy Loggins, Larry Sengstock, and Ron Radliff, the team showcased grit, talent, and undeniable chemistry to capture the title in a thrilling Grand Final against the Adelaide 36ers. This jersey serves as a bridge between eras, reminding fans of the resilience and passion that have defined Brisbane basketball for decades. It’s a chance for fans young and old to connect with the Bullets’ storied history while cheering on the current roster as they carve their own path toward glory. Whether you’re wearing it in the stands or out on the court, this jersey is built for both performance and pride.

The Heritage Jersey is now available for purchase. Fans can pick theirs up online or via the Merchandise Store at home games. With limited stock available, don’t miss your chance to own this timeless piece of Brisbane Bullets history. Wear it with pride, knowing you’re part of a legacy that started 40 years ago.

The Brisbane Bullets will officially debut the Heritage Jersey during a special Heritage Round game on Friday, December 6th, against the Adelaide 36ers at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. The matchup is a fitting tribute to history, as the Bullets claimed their 1985 Championship title by defeating the 36ers in the Grand Final. Fans are encouraged to pack the arena, turn it into a sea of blue and gold, and relive the magic of that unforgettable rivalry.
