Newcastle Falcons is a defunct basketball team that competed in Australia's National Basketball League (NBL). Based in Newcastle, New South Wales, the team played in the NBL's inaugural season in 1979 but left the league in the late 1990s after new owners based in Albury couldn't resolve the club's ongoing financial problems. The city had no NBL team until the new owners of the Canberra Cannons moved to Newcastle and established the Hunter Pirates in 2003.
