The Coles Express NBL1, Basketball Victoria and Basketball South Australia have announced changes to the NBL1 South and NBL1 Central seasons.
NBL1 South will return to action this weekend while all NBL1 Central games scheduled for this weekend have been postponed.
The NBL1 South regular season has been extended by two weeks. The conference finals have been reduced from three weeks to two.
Quarter finals will be played on Friday September 3 and Saturday September 4, semi finals will be played on Sunday September 5 and the Championship Games will take place on Saturday September 11.
Any additional games that are lost will be declared a ‘wash out’ and the ladders adjusted to a win percentage accordingly.
The revised NBL1 South schedule can be found here.
The revised NBL1 Central schedule will be announced soon.
In light of the time lost in both leagues, the Coles Express NBL1 National Finals have been moved back by one week to allow NBL1 South and NBL1 Central to complete their seasons.
The NBL1 National Finals are now scheduled for September 17-19.
The Coles Express NBL1 and its state associations will continue to follow the latest health advice and government restrictions.
The community’s health and safety is paramount and is at the forefront of all decision-making.
