BBL CHANGE OPEN TO PUBLIC FEEDBACK

By on February 21, 2015

The process to review the licence of the BBL – and potential replacements – is set to be pushed back after it was decided it needed extra time.

It is understood committee chair Lord Wasserman has pushed for a significant change to the timeframe set out by Basketball England, with an initial stage now established that will consider the terms of reference for the premier league license.

In a statement, BE confirmed: “The Committee therefore have concluded that its first priority should be to develop a series of recommendations to Basketball England on the key components of any licence that Basketball England offers for the operation of a professional league.

“The Committee will rely on Basketball England’s sports legal advisers for support with this work.”

The committee are now set to deliver initial recommendations by March 11 before considering in detail the rival options from the existing BBL and US-based BBall UK.

The basketball have been invited to submit their views on the process by March 2 to BE’s solicitors via [email protected].

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
