Spanish basketball reaction. In a year where everyone -or almost all- Young sport talents make the decision to go to the NCAAin the United States, Spanish entities have joined to find a solution to counteract this effect.
This solution goes through the Creation of a sub-22 male league. A new competition announced by the Superior Sports Council (CSD) in a statement and that will officially be presented this Wednesday, June 18 at 12:00 am in the Samaranch roomat the headquarters of the CSD.
The new league has been created in Coordination with the Spanish Basketball Federation (FEB) and the Basketball Club Association (ACB) In this joint effort to avoid the escape of talents towards university basketball.
Therefore, in the presentation of the competition, the Minister of Education, Professional Training and Sports will attend, Pilar joy, The president of the CSD, Manuel Rodriguez Uribesthe president of the ACB, Antonio Martín and the president of the Feb, Elisa Aguilar.
Details to know
In this presentation there will be many details of everything that this male sub-22 league will mean, since, for now, little is known. It is not known what type of competition system will follow, but it doesIn order that the vast majority of matches are played on Friday or Saturdaynever on Sunday.
On the other hand, it is not defined which teams are going to participate in this league, if all of ACB will be or there will be different variations. So it is clearer is that the clubs that participate will receive a Economic bonus around 200,000 euros.
