Report

_________________________________________________________

The Irish Basketball Association rebranded the Ladies National Basketball League as the Women’s National League in 1991. Division 2 was the Second Tier.

Drimnagh Dynamoes would win the Division in 1991-92 on a 10-4 record, but lose the Final 62-44 to Snowcream Wexford. The following year Killester would top the league on 10-2 and defeat Carrick-on-Shannon, by two points 59-57 in the Final.

Snowcream Wexford would be back in Division 2 after one season in Division 1 and would win the title with 13 wins from 14 matches. The 1994-95 season would see a drop in the number of teams to five as Brunell of Cork  took the title with a 9-3 record. MSB wouuld take the title in 1995-96 with a 9-3 record and defeat Eagles of Kildare 74-61 in the Final.

Following the 1996-97 season which was won by Blarney with an unblemished 12-0 record, though they lost the Final to Killester in Overtime, 79-75, it was decided to merge Divisions 1 & 2 into one Super League, with a Regional League below this.

The Amateur Basketball Association of Ireland was created in 1945, and in 1971 set up the National League. the modern era began in 1980 when the ABAI changed its name to the Irish Basketball Association (IBBA) and sanctioned the introduction of paid professional imports from America. In 1991 the First and Second Divisions were merged into One Division with two conferences, which in 1993 were split again into a Super League (First Level) and Division 1 (Second Level). They were again merged in 1998 and split once again in 2001. The Association rebranded in 2003 as Basketball Ireland and in 2013 the Super League was rebranded the Premier League for three seasons, reverting back to the name Super League in 2016. [8]

This document provides an Overview of the Super League of the Basketball Ireland Men’s National League from 2016 to 2018, which was First Level of Men’s Basketball in Ireland, and was a period when the League reverted to the Super League brandt, with each team playing Home & Away against each other team to decide the League Champion, followed by a series of Playoffs, called the Champions Trophy, which is a separate competition to the League.
