The National Basketball League of Canada (NBL) Thread

That reports echo's what I had heard, the city desperately wanted a team but no ownership groups had come forward. city staff had spent significant time working on arena arrangement, etc.. but could not find a group of owners.

Basketball was always very popular at the High school level in Moncton and was only second to hockey, like all of Canada.

It does sound as though they will have at least 7-8 teams this season. Would be great to see Fredericton jump in as well as there has always been a fantastic rivalry between SJ/Fred.
