Basketball Sussex
Should the need arise, Basketball Sussex have also agreed that certain league rules may need to be relaxed and schedule dates changed. They will announce these changes when necessary and keep their website page updated + post information on social media channels Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. At the moment however, the deadline for playing league games remains midnight Sunday 26 April. This gives 2 weeks before Finals weekend on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th May at BACA school in Falmer, Brighton.
Basketball England
In the light of the suspension of both FIBA and NBA competitions in Europe and The USA respectively, we are expecting a further announcement from Basketball England later today or tomorrow.
