The event will feature both the men’s and women’s finals, as they aim to claim the Cup.

The format for the Men’s competition was announced earlier this month, confirming the inclusion of seven wildcard entrants from Basketball England and basketballscotland to join the nine SLB teams in the competition.

The Women’s competition will see the top four teams in the SLB Championship as of December 31, 2024, enter a knockout tournament where first plays fourth and second plays third in a single-leg elimination for a place in the Final.
