basketball history question

1980 West Torrens Eagles became 1981 Forestville eagles became 1982 Adelaide 35ers

They were the Adelaide City Eagles in 1982, I believe they became the 36ers in 1983.

1980-1982 Launceston Casino City Tigers

1980 West Torrens Eagles became 1981 Forestville eagles became 1982 Adelaide 35ers

"Reg "Sir Reginald" Biddings had set the 40-minute single-game individual high score of 63 points for the NBL while with Forestville Eagles in 1981 "

So its 1981 !

remember it well.

Well Converse was likely the naming rights sponsor of the league at the time. And based off the teams you list, it would have to be either the 1980 or 1981 season as those were the only two seasons the Forestville Eagles played in
