British Basketball League

As the 2016 BBL Cup Final comes into focus and another huge crowd gets ready to attend one of the biggest dates in the British Basketball calendar, tickets for the 2017 edition are already hitting the box-office.

This must-see event will continue to be held at the superb Barclaycard Arena in Birmingham, which remains very much the home of the BBL Cup.

Taking place on Sunday 15th January 2017, it promises to be another exhilarating day, with the usual mix of entertainment and the best of BBL talent on show.

Also taking place on the day will be the second annual WBBL Trophy Final which sees two top teams from the Women's British Basketball League go head-to-head for the first piece of WBBL silverware of the season.

'With the momentum building up for this season's edition of the BBL Cup Final, it adds to the buzz that we are already excited about giving fans the chance to book for 2017', said BBL Chief Operating Officer, Andy Webb.

'Still pencilled in as the first big showpiece event of the season, it always has a special element to it as the British Basketball community comes together.

'The event has seen some great games in recent years and we have consistently had terrific crowds of over 9,000 and approaching 10,000- a trend which we are confident will continue as the event grows even bigger with each season.

'We are also delighted to be able to continue our partnership with both the Barclaycard Arena and Birmingham City Council which is a strong and valued one'.
