FIBA Internal Regulations Book 3 Article 95

A FIBA A License is required for all Foreign Nationals playing each season, in the BBL or WBBL. If the player is returning to the BBL or WBBL, having been registered to play last season i.e. 2019-2020, then no new FIBA Player Letter of Clearance will be required. Use the FIBA A License Application Form below.

If the player was registered to play with another club (BBL/WBBL or any non BBL/|WBBL club) in Great Britain in season 2019-2020, then the current internal BBL / WBBL transfer process should be followed. The FIBA system will be checked to ensure a valid International Clearance is held by FIBA.
