LIBERIA : LBA expels two clubs
The Liberia Basketball Association (LBA) has withdrawn Deviers and FUBBA
from the 2nd Division fixture of the ongoing 2014/15 league season,
Secretary General Allen Goodridge has confirmed.
The LBA Chief Scribe said the decision is due to the deliberate double forfeits of the two clubs which contravene the rules governing basketball.
According to him, the clubs will now be removed from all of the league activities due to the violation of the LBA rules.
It can be recalled since the kick-off of the LBA league, Deviers and FUBBA have not honor any of their fixtures despite their approval to feature in this year’s competition.
Deviers basketball club 1st forfeited against YMCA cardinals on first match day while their 2nd forfeit came against FUBBA where both team did not show up.
Meanwhile the managements of both clubs are yet to comment on the latest action of the local Basketball house.
