Being an important part of its agenda, the FEB Assembly has approved today what will be the 2023/24 roadmap of the FEB Competitions for the new course. A stable path in terms of competition systems and that will continue with the end of the deadline for the registration of teams on July 14, thus giving way to the final composition of each League.
FEB COMMUNICATION AREA
The Ordinary General Assembly of the FEB held this Saturday in Madrid has approved both the sports calendar for the 2023/24 season and the main changes and modifications within the Competition Bases of each of its Leagues.
Among the most significant changes, the expansion of the number of registrations of players in the LEB Gold League and in the LF Endesa stands out, where the 16 registrations that were allowed until the last season will increase to the 20 that will mark the new 2023/24 academic year. .
For its part, the main change in the LEB Plata and LF2 Leagues will come in relation to the composition of its two competition groups since, from this season, those Autonomous Communities that have more than 50% of teams within one of their Conferences, will divide their presence equally between both groups. In the same way, a commitment is proposed with which to increase the duration of their seasons for the 2024/25 season.
For its part, the EBA League will also adjust the final composition of its groups with an equitable unification of them in terms of the number of teams and competition dates.
In this way, the six main leagues of the FEB went on to approve their game dates, the next step being the completion of the registration period that will arrive on July 14 at 1:00 p.m. on the peninsula. This date will be the one that marks the final composition of the groups as well as the draw for the different calendars.
