Important Update: Ontario Basketball League – U15 To U19 Boys
In an effort to unveil schedules sooner for U15 Midget to U19 Junior Boys, the Ontario Basketball League (OBL) registration deadline has been moved up to March 4, 2016 (from March 21, 2016). Teams must register online in order to be eligible for the inaugural season but individual membership (coach and player) registration can still be submitted by the April 1, 2016 deadline.

OBL Schedule
The game times will be scheduled much like the Ontario Cup Provincial Championships on Saturday and/or Sunday. Matches will tip-off at 9:00 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 12:00 p.m., 1:30 p.m., 3:00 p.m., 4:30 p.m., 6:00 p.m., and 7:30 p.m.
There will be four weekends of competition providing teams with 12 games of OBL play. The first two weekends will consist of two games on a Saturday or Sunday. The remaining two weekends will provide teams with four games over the course of the weekend, to be played on both Saturday and Sunday.
Additionally, games will be scheduled in an effort to accommodate teams from outside the GTA. As an example, teams traveling from Kingston or London will not have games scheduled on Friday and have match-ups in the late morning and later afternoon on Saturday to ease travel arrangements.
