Australian female players to see minimum pay double in four years

27/4/2025 17:51
Australian female basketball players are set to see their minimum salary levels double over the next four years and gain base-level pay parity with men in the third year, in what the country's basketball bodies called "a historic" deal.



A new collective bargaining agreement will lift the minimum salary for players in the Women's National Basketball League from A$23,000 to A$46,952 by the 2028-29 season, with the league's salary cap jumping by 8% every year.



"This agreement marks a historic milestone and is the biggest single leap forward in WNBL history," Jacob Holmes, chief executive of the Australian Basketball Players Association said in a statement.



The 8% salary cap will mean a maximum salary of just over A$723,000 by the 2028-29 season.



The agreement, which is aimed at retaining talent in Australia long-term, also includes full contract protection insurance payments for injured players and higher investment in players' wellbeing.
