Penrith Panthers is the name used by teams representing Penrith & Districts Basketball Association (PDBA), an Australian basketball club based in Penrith, Australia.
For the 2026 season, the men's NBL1 team will be coached by Matt Porter, and the women's NBL1 team will be coached by Liam Cavanagh-Downs.
PDBA was formed in 1987, and the Panthers have participated in the Basketball NSW Waratah League at both Junior and Senior level, including joining the NBL1 East conference in 2023.
Between 1988 and October 2025, Penrith Panthers played out of the Penrith Valley Regional Sports Centre. However following a commercial dispute between the PDBA and operators of that stadium, PDBA have been operating out of several stadiums, with junior domestic competitions being played across 6 high schools. For the 2026 NBL1 season, the Panthers have scheduled home games at Minto Indoor Sports Centre, Hawkesbury Indoor Stadium and Blacktown Leisure Centre.
