Born in the Northern Territory, Renai Fejo is a proud Larrakia, Ngalakan and Jawoyn woman whose passion for community, culture and representation continues to leave a lasting impact on basketball.

Ahead of NBL1 Central’s First Nations Round and the celebration of 50 Years of NAIDOC, Renai jumped on during her holiday in Darwin to yarn about NBL1 Central First Nations Round celebrations, which began with a special event at the new Port Adelaide Cultural Centre, bringing together clubs, artists and community to honour 50 years of NAIDOC.

From her fairytale NBL1 Central Championship alongside her sister Jazzy to her ongoing work off the court, this is a conversation about culture, community and connection.

As a former player, First Nations Round was always one of Renai Fejo’s favourite fixtures of the season.

Now, she continues to work with NBL1 Central to help ensure it remains a meaningful celebration of culture, connection and community.

To honour 50 years of NAIDOC, NBL1 Central brought together clubs, artists and media for a special event at the new Port Adelaide Aboriginal Cultural Centre marking the beginning of this year’s celebrations.

Podcast done... but we couldn’t leave without a little fun on the GAMEREADY PERFORMANCE court. 🏀☕️

Calvin Bruton still has the touch, knocking down the free throw before dishing an assist to Grandson Rio Bruton for the dunk.

Some things never change – the love of the game and a little Bruton family magic.

A special Mother’s Day memory from the WNBL season 💜🏀

One of the moments I’ll genuinely hold onto from the season was getting the chance to chat with Sania Feagin’s mum, Sherri, during the Adelaide Lightning season.

So much of the conversation around athletes focuses on what happens on the court — but behind every player is usually a support system that’s sacrificed, encouraged, believed, and shown up through every stage of the journey.

Hearing Sherri speak with so much pride, perspective, and love for Sania was pretty special.

A reminder that the game is never just about the players alone — it’s about the people who help shape them along the way.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mums / moms, mother figures, and women supporting dreams behind the scenes every single day ⚡💐
