How would you describe the typical BBAXN player?
BBAXN players have the distinct passion, heart and hunger for basketball excellence. While there is a high-intensity nature of competition, our games also promote camaraderie and fun among our players.
How fit do you need to be to play?
Anyone who is fit to dribble and pass, defend and shoot the ball, or run up and down the court can play the game. Players also need to have enough physical and mental toughness to endure the playing hours; tiredness and competition to win games.The physical and mental strengths of our players are continuously enhanced and developed as each season passes.
What if we don’t know anyone else who plays?
At BBAXN, everyone is treated as part of a family. Even if you do not know anyone else in the league, the mere fact that you share the same passion and excellence in playing basketball will not hinder you to play with us.As part of our initiative to assist interested players in showing their basketball passion and skills, we have created a very easy way for you to reach out to our existing teams. If you are looking at joining a team, all you have to do is to register at our “Players Looking for a Team” database. BBAXN uses this database to help players become members of existing teams. The database is visited by team managers, who are bolstering their rosters, on a daily basis. These team managers will then get in touch and invite these prospective players for try-outs.
How competitive do games get?

While offering a fun platform for basketball enthusiasts, BBAXN also offers an opportunity for those who are looking at testing their basketball skills against teams who are striving to excel in their favourite sport.
