History
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/84/DandenongRangers1.jpg/150px-DandenongRangers1.jpg)
The Dandenong Rangers made their debut in the Women's National Basketball League (WNBL) in the 1992 season after Dandenong Basketball Association (DBA) obtained a WNBL license from the Nunawading Spectres.[1] The Rangers went on to finish as runners-up in their first season. In the 2003–04 and 2004–05 seasons, the Rangers won back-to-back WNBL championships. They finished as runners-up in 2005–06. The team won their third championship in 2011–12 and finished runners-up again in 2016–17.[2]
In July 2019, the Dandenong Rangers franchise was purchased from DBA by long-time sponsor Gerry Ryan and rebranded to the Southside Flyers.[3][4] The team continued to play at Dandenong Stadium until moving to the State Basketball Centre in 2022.[5]
In the 2019–20 WNBL season, the Flyers finished as runners-up. In the 2020 WNBL Hub season in Queensland, the Flyers won their first championship and fourth in franchise history. They finished runners-up again in 2022–23.[2]
