Introducing the Next Level Basketball League (NLBL) – London's premier inter-scholastic basketball league exclusively for talented players from LSB Basketball Academies who aspire to play at colleges and universities in America or pursue a professional career at home or abroad.
Our league is a well-organised, competitive platform that enables talented academy players to showcase their skills to coaches and scouts from America and mainland Europe, who are searching for under-exposed players with high-potential to join their teams on scholarship, or in some cases, professional assignment.
The NLBL is a FREE opportunity for players from LSB Basketball Academies to increase their options, credibility, and visibility in an otherwise hard-to-access market. By participating in the NLBL, players have the opportunity to increase their exposure and improve their prospective next-step opportunities. In most cases, this will be by helping market the top players from the league to post-grad prep schools, JUCO's, NAIA schools, and all of the NCAA Division 1, 2 & 3 schools in America. For some players, it may also include marketing to our network of European coaches and scouts who feed some of the top academies in mainland Europe.
The NLBL is a quality-driven league that provides an unbiased and accessible platform for talented academy players to showcase their skills to the biggest audience of coaches and scouts possible. All games are set up to capture high-quality, extensive footage of every play of every player in every game across the league, providing coaches and scouts with in-depth, high-quality video footage of the top players to assess their suitability as potential recruits.
With HD digital production quality game capture in place across all games, the NLBL enables coaches worldwide to discover hidden gems among London's top academy players. Accurate statistical data of the league's top players across a minimum of 16 games throughout the season, coupled with the game film, enable the platform to produce objective player ranking lists and stats leaderboards, that are fed directly into player profiles for all players in the league, which are shared with our global network of coaches and scouts.
The Next Level Basketball League is a groundbreaking opportunity for talented academy players to showcase their skills to the biggest audience of coaches and scouts possible.
