By BETRAM LENGAMA
ABC basketball team qualified for the Dar es Salaam Regional Basketball League, popularly known as 'Kili RBA league', for this season with two games in hand before the second division league 'Dar Dream Cup' winds up.
ABC are in no doubt of taking part in this year's Kili RBA league season expected to throw off on July, even if they lose their two remaining games in the second division league which climaxes this weekend.
Basketball Dar es Salaam (BD) Executive Director Mbaga Mwamboma told the 'Daily News' in the city yesterday that ABC have already booked their ticket for the Kili RBA league after winning all their previous games in ongoing Dar Dream Cup league despite having two games in hands.
According to Mwamboma, other teams, which stand a chance to be promoted for the Kili RBA league, sponsored by Tanzania Breweries Limited (TBL) through its Kilimanjaro Premium Lager brand, are Flelio, Oilers team B, PTW and Calvarias, which are behind ABC in the men's league standing.
Four teams will be promoted in the RBA league to replace Pazi, TM Rockects, TM Mkwawa and Magnet relegated from Kili RBA league last season.
In the ladies' category, PTW Stars and Polisi Barracks have also booked their place in the RBA league after topping their category, which involved only three teams. Both teams have one game in hand.
The tournament, conducted on league basis involving home and away games, comprises ABC, Magone, Polisi, TM Wizards, Yellow Jackets, Calvarias, UDSM Insiders, Flelio and Tan Black in men's discipline and PTW Stars, Polisi and CMTU in ladies' discipline.
