Austria’s men’s basketball super league is heading into the future with a new name sponsor. As the domestic association (ÖBV) announced on Monday, online sports betting provider bet-at-home will be on board for at least two seasons from 2020/21. Good news in times of the corona pandemic that caused the current season to be canceled in March.
“The early end of the season of course hit us emotionally and economically. But we didn’t put our heads in the sand and immediately started to work for the future,” said ÖBV President Gerald Martens. The league was reintegrated into the association in 2019 after 20 years of independence. Betting provider Admiral had been the name sponsor since 2008. Only in the previous week had Austria’s ice hockey league presented bet-at-home as title sponsor for three seasons.
