The draw for the Israeli group in BIBL will take place today
Today at 14:00 in the offices of the Winner Basketball League in Tel Aviv the draw of the Israeli group will be taken. It will happen in Zoom as well as LIVE in the social media.
Twelve (12) Israeli teams will be divided in to four (4) groups (A.B.C.D) of 3 teams each one with a round-robin-system. Each team will play against the other teams of their group twice during the regular season, home and away. There will be 6 rounds in each group and total of 24 games.
The four (4) first-place teams in their groups will play ONE game in order to determine the 2 teams to continue to Stage 2. The pairs as well as the hosting team shall be decided by a draw held by the IBSL after the 6 rounds of 24 games are finished. The two (2) winners shall qualify to Stage 2. The total number of games in the first stage for the Israeli teams will be 26.
The BIBL together with the Winner league have decided to divide the 12 teams to 6 teams of Central and North Israel, and 6 teams Central and South Israel. The 2 groups of the North will consist of - Maccabi Haifa, Hapoel B Cure lazer Haifa, Hapoel Gilboa/Galil , Ironi Nahariya, Bnei Hertzliya and Hapoel SP Tel Aviv which will be divided in groups A and B. The South group will consist of: Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem, Hapoel Holon, Maccabi Rishon Le Zion, Ironi Hai Motors Ness Ziona, Hapoel Altshuler Shaham Be′er Sheva and Hapoel Yossi Avrahami Eilat which will form groups C and D.
The only exception is that Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem and Hapoel Holon can not be in the same group as the two teams will start playing on 27.10.2020 in FIBA BCL and it may cause problems in the further schedule of the 2 teams.
We are sure that the first stage, which is planned to start 15.10.2020, will provide a lot of interesting basketball games and in the end the best 2 teams will join the best 4 teams from the Balkan group which will start competing on 20.10.2020.
All the games will be broadcast live in Canal Sport 5 and in Youtube.
As we always say in the Balkan League: "May be the best team win"
