CBA berth available for keen NBL teams

The possibility of a berth in the CBA should inspire the teams to fight even harder during the 2013 National Basketball League season, which tips off on May 26.

The new NBL season should draw fierce competition and huge exposure this summer as one of the 10 clubs will be promoted to the higher-level CBA after the two-month season ends in July.

A team's final result will count heavily in the overall promotion assessment, which also includes the club's home stadium facilities, previous record and reserve team development, according to the CBA.
