The Perth Wildcats are the most decorated club in NBL history — ten championships across four different decades, more than any other team in the league. Founded in 1982 as Western Australia's first national basketball team, the Wildcats have built one of the most successful and consistent runs in Australian professional sport.
Whether you've collected a signed jersey, own a match-day guernsey, or simply want to celebrate your love for the red and black, displaying your Wildcats jersey is one of the best ways to honour the club's remarkable history.
The History of the Perth Wildcats
The club was founded in 1982 as the Westate Wildcats, becoming Western Australia's first team in the National Basketball League and playing out of the modest 800-seat Perry Lakes Basketball Stadium. Interest grew quickly, and in 1984 the club was renamed the Perth Wildcats — the start of the "red era" that's defined the franchise ever since.
The Wildcats claimed their first championship in 1990 and backed it up in 1991, building a dynasty around James Crawford, Andrew Vlahov and Ricky Grace that established the club as the NBL's benchmark franchise. A third title followed in 1995 and a fourth in 2000, before the club navigated a more turbulent stretch through the early 2000s behind veterans like Paul Rogers and Martin Cattalini.
Perth returned to the top with a fifth championship in 2010, then entered arguably its greatest era yet — five further titles in 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2020, featuring stars like Bryce Cotton in the club's most recent title runs. No other club in NBL history has won championships across four different decades.
Fun fact: Between 1987 and 2021, the Wildcats made the finals 35 seasons in a row — a streak no other professional sports team in Australia, in any code, has ever matched.

No NBL club has come close to Perth's consistency.
