PLHBA acknowledges that many players are involved in multiple sports. However, the association’s primary objective is to maximise participation in basketball. By updating court allocations from previous years, the association now has access to a greater number of courts, which in turn allows more teams to take part in the competition.
Domestic clubs are requested to remind their players and coaches that fixtures will not be altered to accommodate personal circumstances, other sporting commitments, or competitions run by other basketball associations.
