Eurobasket.com


Eurobasket.com is a basketball-centered website that aims to provide coverage of all the professional and semi-professional leagues around the world. Although primarily focusing on European basketball, the website hosts several different regional sections for North America, Latin America, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. Eurobasket.com claims to cover basketball in 193 countries and 435 leagues around the world, with over 382,000 player profiles updated daily.

History

The website began operating in March 1997. In 2010, it was incorporated into Hong Kong based web programming company Sports I.T. Solutions.

Operations

The news content is provided by free-lance contributors known as correspondents who track news on basketball events and players, and post transfer news, game results and end-of-season awards. On occasion, a league can provide the correspondents with news on its activities and results.
The site also hosts a database of thousands of coaches and players in active or formerly active leagues around the world, with some of that content being accessible only through subscription, as with sections aimed at professional basketball players, coaches and agents.

Summer league

Eurobasket.com has also organised the Eurobasket Summer Leagues, which are yearly summer leagues in the United States that tour around the world to help free agents find professional clubs overseas. The events, catering to men and women, have hosted players from lesser known backgrounds to enable them to gain more exposure.
