The BBA is coming…but not as you know it…

It has been a long time in the making, and plenty of individuals have tried to get it off the ground, however, finally it is here; the Bikini Basketball Association!

OK, so perhaps all you British basketball fans can be forgiven for thinking it might be the British Basketball Association that’s been blowing around like a twirl of hay over the many years, but perhaps this BBA isn’t a bad substitute.

Touted on the official Twitter (@BikiniBall) and Facebook pages as bringing a “Bikini Basketball League [Ed: BBA and BBL living in harmony…] for Sexy Athletic Ladies”, it will no doubt stir people’s memories back to when the Lingerie Football League started up a few short years ago.

In fact, that has seriously taken off since the inaugural 2009 season and this weekend sees the LFL Canada Lingerie Bowl I, after the LFL season this year moved to Canada whilst “restructuring” took place for the 2013 season in the USA. It’s taken such a hold, that there are plans aside for a World Bowl involving winners from LFL, LFL Canada, LFL Australia and the proposed LFL Europe.
