Sheffield Sharks will relocate back to the English Institute of Sport this season.
The venue switch came after their Ponds Forge base was shuttered until 2021 by its owners due to financial reasons.
In a letter to fans, Sharks chairman Yuri Matischen said: “As you may have heard sporting events will be subject to reduced numbers and we have had to take the measure of limiting season tickets.
“We will of course inform you of how and when any game tickets can be purchased, though at this stage outside of season ticket holders we cannot make any guarantees.”

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.
