The Illawarra Hawks are thrilled to announce the signing of rising young talent Jackson Ball as a development player for the upcoming NBL26 season.

Ball, a promising guard known for his athleticism, work ethic, and high basketball IQ, joins the Hawks after impressing with his performances at the junior and representative levels, recently representing NZ at the U19 World Cup.  His commitment to growth and his competitive drive make him a strong addition to the club’s developmental pathway.

“Jackson is a player we've been tracking for some time,” said Illawarra Hawks General Manager of Basketball, Mat Campbell. “He brings a great mix of skill and potential, and we believe our system is the perfect environment for him to take the next step in his basketball journey.
