Basketball Champions League

The Basketball Champions League (BCL) is an annual club basketball competition organized by FIBA, the sport's international governing body. Launched in 2016, it features top teams from across Europe, promoting competitive play outside of national leagues and the more prestigious EuroLeague. The tournament consists of a group stage followed by knockout rounds, culminating in a final where the champion is crowned. The BCL aims to provide a platform for clubs to showcase talent, enhance fan engagement, and elevate the level of European basketball, while also promoting sportsmanship and camaraderie among participating teams.
