Bonn, Oldenburg or Valencia – the main thing is baskets…
Fans in European basketball halls have it pretty easy. When they cheer on the baskets, there is usually at least one team with their name on the floor. The third German league, the Pro B, is also full of clubs that have the suffix in their club name. This also applies to SBB Baskets from Wolmirstedt (11,000 inhabitants) near Magdeburg. The makers now want to stand out from the Baskets monotony and are looking for a new name. The fans should suggest it.

On Facebook and Instagram, the Baskets ask their fans for suggestions: “The SBB Baskets become…? You are in demand! We want to give our club a new name. This is intended to give the necessary expression to our dynamic development and ambitious goals. It should be less arbitrary than the name “Baskets” and create identity.”

The post is full of creative suggestions: “Giraffes”, “Air Jordans Wolmirstedt”, “Börde Knights”, “Barracudas”, “Dynamics”, “Unicorns” or “Börde Shooters”. However, many fans also advocate that everything stays the same because, in their opinion, the club would otherwise give up part of its identity.

“We announced ‘Vision 2030’ last year. That means: We want to play in the Basketball Bundesliga in 2030 and also develop the organization structurally into a premier league location. This is an ambitious and ambitious project in which we want to involve the entire region,” says managing director Cindy Rössel to SPORTBILD.
Part of the ambitious project is the planned renaming. “Above all, our project is extremely exciting because we also want to redefine our identity as a club to some extent on the way to ‘Vision 2030’. We want to be completely transparent. We want to show people that we want to achieve something together and change things for the better. The ‘Name The Team’ call is a first step,” said Rössel.
The search for a new name continues for two more days. Then those responsible for the club get together and make a pre-selection. Ultimately, the fans will decide whether the Baskets will become the Börde Shooters, Giraffes or the Flying Chickens next season.

“If in the end a majority is in favor of continuing the name ‘SBB Baskets’, then SBB Baskets will remain so. We don’t decide anything on our own and impose anything with a crowbar. However, many submissions also suggested including the Börde,” says Rössel.
If everything goes as the (still)Baskets imagine, the opening game of the 2030/31 BBL season could be SBB Börde Barrakuda Shooters against Telekom Baskets Bonn.
