While the heads of the four biggest football players were explaining on television that the clubs as the Clubs Union Foundation should protect their league, Ali Koç said that it was 10 years late on this issue, the 20-year loss of basketball passed before my eyes.

‘The sick state of having the drum on the backs of the clubs and the mallet in the hands of the federation’ has been a bleeding wound in basketball for 20 years. Restructuring is the most important issue that needs to be resolved. In 1991, ULEB (Association of European Basketball Leagues) was established under the leadership of the Italian, Spanish and French leagues in order to coordinate and develop the professional basketball leagues in Europe. In 1996, the Greek and Portuguese basketball federations were also included in the union. Today, the number of ULEB member national federations has reached 49, excluding us.

Despite being a professional, the FiBA-linked TBF (Turkish Basketball Federation) descends on the basketball branch like a nightmare. With the waiver taken from the hands of the clubs, broadcasting, sponsor, naming rights etc. of the basketball leagues. In addition to all incomes, all fees from league participation and player transfers go to TBF.

Clubs travel, lounge rental, etc. bear all their own expenses. Of course, in the case of this negative balance, since the branch is a burden to the club, at least two teams that spin mills with transport water close their shutters every year, except for clubs like Fenerbahçe and Anadolu Efes that spend out of pocket.

We haven’t been able to solve the issue with so-called autonomy for years. The situation of the national teams is obvious. Solution; You will cut the Gordion knot right in the middle… By establishing the TKBL (Turkish Clubs Basketball League), a company structuring should be created with its own income and expense. They increase the commercial value of the brand themselves. They train their own players and referees.

THINGS OF THE FIELD REMAIN ON THE FIELD

If this structure is accepted and put into practice, the Basketball Federation also performs its public duty as a kind of notary, responsible only for the national teams and the registration of the results of the matches, as stated in its founding purpose. The way of the mind is one. The federations, which have been drawn into professionalism over the years and should be amateurs, do not make revolutionary radical changes in this sport spontaneously, as they will lose their prestige. The Ministry of Sports needs to address the issue.
