09-October-2007 Arlington, Texas -- The Texas Basketball League is now accepting market reservations for 2009. According to Benjamin Brinkley, TBL President, "Once again, this upcoming season will see huge growth in the league with many new players in the Texas and across the country. And we are now making plans for next season. Already, we have several new ownership groups set to play in 2009, but there are many great cities that are ready for TBL expansion, and we are eager to talk to new ownership groups."
Among the key targeted cities are Dallas, Fort Worth, Irving, Duncanville, Denton, Frisco, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Lubbock, Brownsville, Tyler, Corsicana, Galveston, El Paso and Rio Grande. And there are many cities in state of Texas that have expressed interest towards us The reason for the rapid TBL expansion is because we believe we have the best semi-professional sports package on the market. It is easier to own and operate an TBL team than any other. Minimum investment, minimum risk, and a high potential for excellent profits.
"Plus, it is great fun," added Brinkley. "We have an extraordinary business model and marketing plan for teams. There are so many great benefits to ownership of an TBL team. Now is the time to reserve a market so that you will have plenty of time to maximize the potential."
