The 2020 TBL season is the third season of The Basketball League (TBL). In March 18, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the season was cancelled without completion.
On June 29, 2019, league CEO Evelyn Magley announced Kayla Crosby as the director of team development for approving new teams. Crosby is the owner and founder of the Jamestown Jackals. [1]
It was announced that the Albany Patroons had been sold to new ownership. [2] The Yakima SunKings were not included as 2020 member and the Mesquite Desert Dogs withdrew due to the travel constraints as the only remaining west coast team.
The league also added the Columbus Condors, Dayton Flight, Dallas Skyline, Gulf Coast Lions, Indy Express, Lewisville Yellow Jackets, and the Tri-State Admirals as expansion teams. [3] [4] The TBL added the Gulf Coast Lions, based in the Bradenton/Sarasota area, as the league's seventh new team for the 2020 season. The San Diego Waves were replaced by expansion San Diego Armada while the Waves were being relocated, but neither team would make the 2020 schedule. [5]
