University Basketball League (UBL)

What is the University Basketball League (UBL)? 

The University Basketball League (UBL) is a national university basketball competition providing a pathway for male and female basketball athletes to study and play for their university. Launching in 2021, the UBL will enter its third year of competition in 2023 with the largest number of universities set to compete for the title of University Basketball League Champion. UniSC is one of eleven Australian universities and the only university in Queensland to compete in the 2023 national league which will be contested between March and May 2023.

Every game of the 2023 UBL will be livestreamed, with games played mid-week and home games at USC Stadium, UniSC Sunshine Coast.
