The National Basketball League of Canada hosted its annual "spring meeting", June 5th & 6th at its headquarters in London ON. A very productive two day event with improvements & enhancements scheduled for the upcoming 7th season:
CANADIAN CONTENT Over the past (6) seasons the league has been very cognizant of increasing the Canadian percentage of players in a manner that will allow the league to support the growth of basketball in Canada while not negatively impacting the game that our fans so passionately love and support. This past season a record number of Canadians suited up in uniform and their impact was felt. The championship team started (3) and played (4) in their rotation. With this reality we are pleased to announce that this season each team will carry a mandatory minimum of (5) Canadians at all time. With the increase of the number of teams, injuries and standard player moves, we could see as many as (70) Canadians suited up in the NBL this year.
START OF THE SEASON After (2) years of starting the season on Boxing Day, the NBL has decided to move the season back to start on or around November 18, 2017. The reasoning is that the good weather in the spring has proven to be too much of a competitor for our fans attention. When the weather breaks our fans are excited to enjoy it; work on yards, cook out, go to cottages, watch their children in spring sports. Additionally it will should be easier to get and keep our talent as most winter leagues have started earlier and we have lost good players because they are ready to start playing, to other leagues with earlier start dates over seas.
LENGTH OF THE SEASON This year we will be expanding the season by (2) weeks. Regular season will end on or before April 2nd. This increase in length should allow us to work with our venues and secure more weekend dates. It will provide a modest increase in the salary caps for our players, as well. The same playoff schedule will be followed: - Round 1 - Best of 5 Games - Conference Finals - Best of 7 Games - Championship Series - Best of 7 Games Note: Only the top (4) teams in each conference will make the playoffs, increasing the intensity and importance of the regular season.
INJURED RESERVE RULE The "Injured Reserve Rule" is being replaced with a simpler and easier to enforce "Inactive Player Rule" - Each team may keep up to (12) "Active Players" - Each team may keep up to (3) additional "Inactive Players" Inactive players will be paid A portion of the inactive player's salary will count against the salary cap. This is a similar rule that the NBA has and is much easier to enforce at a league level.
PUBLIC RULE BOOK A new simplified rule book is being created. This book will be available on line for our fans to download and a copy will be at every scorer's table.
REFEREE ENHANCEMENTS In an attempt to continue the improvements of our referees, we will continue to recruit additional talent to our growing pool of referees (this season a record 12 rookie referees were added)... All refs will go through standard fitness testing. The review process that coaches participated in last season will be enhanced this year. Coaching boxes will be put down 5' from the end of each bench. An emphasis on coach/player respect for the game and officials will be strongly enforced. Courtesy of: nblcanada.ca

The National Basketball League of Canada is pleased to announce the arrival of a new team in Greater Moncton area comprised of three prominent local business leaders. The deal was made official today when the league signed an agreement authorizing the creation of the new club. The new organization will operate under the name "MONCTON MAGIC" and will join the league in time for the 2017/18 regular season. The MAGIC is pleased to call the Moncton Coliseum their home court where they will host the community for all 20 of their home games. The team will be run by three principle owners, all prominent business leaders with deep roots in the Moncton region and its community: With this announcement the Moncton Miracles will cease to exist effective today. Jon Manship is a local entrepreneur who founded Spielo Gaming International, which was sold to outside interests in 2003. In recent years, he has been an active philanthropist and investor, principally in the startup community. David Booth is the Chairman and CEO of BackOffice Associates - a global governance and stewardship platform company headquartered in Northern Virginia. He has extensive business and family ties to Moncton. Jeremy Milburn is a local entrepreneur who is founder and president of Global Drafting Services. He is also an avid basketball fan who has supported pro basketball in Moncton since its beginning. "I am very pleased to be a part of this new group who will continue to bring professional basketball to the great city of Moncton, New Brunswick", said Manship, who will be the acting President of the MONCTON MAGIC. "Greater Moncton has a long tradition of passionate support for its community teams, and we intend to apply that same level of passion to our efforts in running this club and the product we put on the floor.' Greater Moncton's newest team is thrilled by the support they have been shown by the NBLC. "On behalf of the NBL Canada we are thrilled with the announcement of this determined local ownership group and the development of a new team for our Moncton fan base. Moncton is one of the original members of the league, its geographic positioning and wonderful fan base make it a vital piece to the long term success of the NBLC. This group represents a significant commitment to the city and their passion for success and proven track record in their own businesses give us 100% confidence that they will build something that all of us will be proud of,' said David Magley, Commissioner of NBL Canada. 'On a personal note, I have spent an inordinate amount of time in Moncton over the last couple of years and have a strong affinity for the city and its wonderful people. I would also like to thank the countless volunteers, staff and fan base over the past few years that have been the lifeblood of keeping this past club here until this day could be realized." More announcements about the team are expected in the coming weeks. Courtesy of: nblcanada.ca
