NBBF Boss,Tj Umar |
Sequel to the elimination of Union Bank,
Dodan Warriors and Lagos Islanders from the DSTV Basketball League, the Nigeria
Basketball Federation(NBBF) has consequently adjusted the fixtures for the 2015/2016 new Premier League season.
This decision was taken due to the
participation of the three Lagos teams in the Africa Basketball League which
the NBBF considers as illegal.
For that reason, it has been confirmed
that only five teams will slug it out in the Atlantic Conference of this
season's DSTV Basketball League: Rivers Hoopers, Delta Force, Oluyole Warriors,
Kwara Falcons and the only Lagos side left, Nigeria Customs. This means, a team
will be placed on standby every week with the others playing against each other
twice in the same week.
To this end, Rivers Hoopers have been
scheduled to play their first two games away at Customs in Lagos on Friday,
March 18 and Sunday March 20, 2016.
Other fixtures for week 1:
Oluyole Warriors V Kwara Falcons
Nigeria Customs V Rivers Hoopers
Delta Force stands by in Week 1
