The NBL will use new decals on courts across Australia for the remainder of the 2020-21 Hungry Jack’s NBL season.

The NBL will use new decals on courts across Australia for the remainder of the 2020-21 Hungry Jack’s NBL season.
 
NBL Commissioner Jeremy Loeliger said: “At the start of this season we had to introduce new decals in order to meet the requirements stipulated by FIBA.
 
“We have since reviewed their use and they have undergone rigorous testing. At the same time we also engaged FIBA accredited testers to test the product we used last season and worked closely the Australian Basketball Players’ Association to address this issue.
 
“This testing has shown the decals we used last season meet the required FIBA non-slip standards and are more effective in most circumstances. They have been used at NBL Cup games since last Wednesday and with the support of the ABPA we have made the decision to use these decals for the remainder of the season at all venues across Australia.”
