Following last Saturday's game. The Slingers ended their 2008/9 season with a bang with a big win over Barangay Ginebra. Everyone has been asking me when is the next game coming. Well news for you is that the season has ended but we will start a ASEAN Pro Basketball League - Full credit to Slingers Chairman Tony Fernandes who cut through the politics in record time to have the announcement made yesterday when the President and Secretary General of FIBA were in Malaysia.
The ABL is an initiative between private investors from various industries and the South East Asian Basketball Association (SEABA) to create a regional basketball league that will be open to professional teams owned and operated by private owners. For more news refer to the official Slingers website.
Only bad news is that it is slated to open only later half of the year in Sep 2009 lasting till Feb 2010.
