Geography
As there are two teams from the United Kingdom, Poland, Lithuania and Estonia, they are split in two different groups – in order to face different and unknown opponents.
Economy
ENBL has reorganized the competition format – starting from the fall of 2023, there will be SINGLE games only.
In order to save the costs for the clubs, ENBL arranged more balanced groups.

Bristol Flyers
Hapoel Beer Sheva-Dimona
KB Sigal Prishtina
Landstede Hammers Zwolle
Polski Cukier Start Lublin
Spartak Pleven
