Team history
After operating a successful basketball program in Cairns, Queensland, Cairns Basketball joined the Queensland State Basketball League in its second season in 1987.[1] They fielded two teams, the Cairns Marlins in the men's competition and the Cairns Dolphins in the women's competition.
After a successful first season for the NBL1 in 2019, in 2020 it expanded into Queensland and replaced the QBL. After this change, the Dolphins transferred to the NBL1 North.[2][3]
