European Basketball Leagues

European Basketball Leagues (formerly ULEB) brings together Europe’s professional basketball leagues to strengthen the sport’s foundations across the continent. Working in close cooperation with national federations and key stakeholders, we focus on shared structural challenges and on supporting the sustainable growth of professional basketball.

We believe that national leagues are the pillars of European basketball. They drive talent development, energize local communities, and sustain the competitive framework of the sport. Protecting and reinforcing these domestic structures is at the core of our mission.

As the landscape evolves, European Basketball Leagues serves as a platform for unity, dialogue, and collaboration, ensuring that leagues have a strong collective voice on issues such as:

• A balanced and coordinated international calendar
• A clearer and more rational structure of European competitions
• A transparent and merit-based sporting hierarchy
• A fan-friendly basketball ecosystem with accessible formats and schedules
• The protection of player health and welfare

European Basketball Leagues also acts as a knowledge and cooperation hub, enabling leagues to exchange best practices, share insights, and work together on innovation and long-term development.

Rooted in strong domestic competitions and guided by shared ambition, European Basketball Leagues is committed to shaping a more coherent, sustainable, and unified future for basketball in Europe.
