The Egyptian Basketball Premier League (Arabic: بطولة الدورى العام الممتاز (أ) رجال) is the top professional basketball division of the Egyptian basketball league system. Administered by the Egyptian Basketball Federation (EBBFED), it is contested by 16 teams, with the two lowest-placed teams relegated to the Egyptian Basketball Premier League B and replaced by the top two teams in that division.
A total of five clubs have been crowned champions of the Egyptian Basketball Super League since its inception in 1972, with Zamalek winning the title a record 15 times and Al Ittihad 14 times, though the Egyptian Basketball Super League also saw other champions, including Gezira (11 times), Al Ahly (7 times) and Sporting (3 times). The champions of each season qualify for the Basketball Africa League (BAL) regular season.[citation needed]
Format
[edit]The Premier League is the basic and qualifying league for the Basketball Africa League (BAL), as Egypt has been identified as a key market by the league's organisation.
The typical season currently consists of three stages:
- The preliminary stage: where 1 meets 16, 2 meets 15, and so on in terms of ranking in the Mortabt-League.
- The regular season: After the rise of eight teams compete among themselves In back and forth matches. The season is divided into the Super League (teams ranked 1st–8th) and the bottom group (teams ranked 9th–16th).
- Playoffs stage: It starts from the final round, where the 1st place holder of the regular league meets the 8th place holder in a series of three matches, then the semi-finals and the final is a series of 5 matches.
- Classification stages: possibly, the lower-ranked teams from the regular season play each other in a play-off format to determine the final rankings as well as relegation.[citation needed]
