Basketball Development League
Invitation to schools that are starting to introduce basketball as a sporting code to take advantage of this opportunity. The Basketball Development League is aimed at assisting and supporting schools to develop a sustainable and holistic basketball program for their schools. Basketball can also be used as an important value add for your school’s sports program in preparation for your respective winter sports program.
Basketball Development League Format
Players and coaches can only get better by playing more games. The sole purpose of the development league is to make sure that coaches and players are afforded the opportunity to do just that.
The league format is entirely dependent on the number of teams that will register per division. The intended plan is to have a minimum of six teams per division. This means that teams will be guaranteed five games. Should a team progress to the knock-out stages teams will be guaranteed 2 games at least
