Qualifying games for the 2026 BAL season
Sports season
The qualification for the 2026 BAL season, also known as Road to BAL 2026, were the qualifying tournaments for the sixth season of the Basketball Africa League (BAL). The tournaments were organised by FIBA Africa.
The competition is scheduled to begin on 17 October and end in December 2025.[1]
The official list of teams were announced by FIBA on 3 October 2025.[1][2]
Dynamo was supposed to represent Burundi as national champions, however, it was not able to meet the deadlines, including the pending suspension after their withdrawal from the 2024 BAL season, which occurred after the Burundian government disallowed the team to wear the Rwandan sponsor, following political tensions between the two nations.[3][4][5]
The group stage will begin on 17 October and end on 29 October. The venues for each group were announced on 15 October 2025.[25]
Venue: Bamako, Mali
Venue: Abidjan, Ivory Coast
Venue: Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo
Ranking of third-placed teams
[edit]
Venue: Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Venue: Lusaka, Zambia
On 31 October 2025, Nairobi, Kenya and Praia, Cape Verde were announced as host venues.[26]
- ^ The FUBA initially nominated 2024 NBL champions City Oilers as representative, however, Nam Blazers successfully protested the decision, and was given the spot based on its first place in the regular season of the 2025 season.[15]
