Defend the Island Foundation

Defend the Island Foundation

On the back of the historic 2023/24 NBL Championship, the Tasmania JackJumpers are proud to launch the Defend the Island Foundation, raising funds to grow the game and allow more Tasmanians to play basketball through the club's community programs.


Fans can make a tax-deductible donation of any amount, however fans are invited to join Scott Roth and claim their place in history as part of the NBL24 Championship celebrations by etching their name in history for just $10.


Etch your name in Championship history

Fans can etch their name in history through a $10 donation to the Defend the Island Foundation. Each fan will have their name included on the wall behind the Championship trophy which will be proudly displayed at MyState Bank Arena and the Launceston Silverdome in the 24/25 Season, before finding a permanent home at a future high-performance facility. 



Defend the Island Foundation

The Defend the Island Foundation is not just about supporting a basketball team; it's about building a legacy that echoes in the hearts of Tasmanians for generations to come. We invite you to stand with us, Defend the Island, and be part of a movement that enriches our community and fuels the aspirations of our future champions. Together, let's build a lasting legacy for Tasmania.


The Defend the Island Foundation is proud to support three key strategic pillars of the Tasmania JackJumpers - Community Focused, Grow the Game, On Court Success.
