The second amendment for Sydney will see its Thursday, January 23 fixture with Townsville move on one day forward, meaning they’ll now face the Fire on Wednesday (live on ESPN).

The other three updated fixtures, in the regular season, are Adelaide vs Townsville (moving from January 16 to February 5), Perth vs Geelong (February 14 to February 7) and Southside vs Adelaide (January 22 to February 9).

As well as those five matches, the WNBL has made small changes to the semi-final series, between the second and third-placed outfits.

The harbour city side will next play Geelong United at Geelong Arena for the first time on Saturday, December 14 – tipping off at 7.30pm live on 9Now.

The next home fixture for Guy Molloy’s Hoops Capital side is Sunday, December 22 against Adelaide, tipping off at 12.15pm AEDT at Quaycentre.
