The 2020 Sydney Uni Flames season is the 41st season for the franchise in the Women's National Basketball League (WNBL).
Brydens Lawyers remain as the Flames' naming rights sponsor for the eighth consecutive season.[1]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a North Queensland hub is set to host the season.[2] The season was originally 2020–21 and would be traditionally played over several months across the summer, however this seasons scheduling has been condensed. The six-week season will see Townsville, Cairns and Mackay host a 56-game regular season fixture, plus a four game final series (2 x semi-finals, preliminary final and grand final). Each team will contest 14 games starting on 12 November, with the grand final scheduled for 20 December.[3]

A council report has detailed a proposal to host, and be central to, the 2020/21 WNBL season within a coronavirus 'bubble'. It's understood the WNBL has plans to host the games wholly within North Queensland, taking advantage of state government grants funding.
