CEBL moves to single-game championship in Winnipeg after Game 1 cancelled
The Winnipeg Sea Bears and Brampton Honey Badgers opened Game 1 at Brampton's CAA Centre on Wednesday, but play was suspended early in the first quarter.
The Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) has decided to shift its championship format from a three-game series to a single-game format due to the cancellation of Game 1 in Winnipeg. The first game, scheduled for Wednesday, was called off early after condensation on the court made the playing conditions unsafe. Following consultations with both teams, game officials, and venue staff, the league announced that the championship will now be decided in a single game set to take place in Winnipeg on Saturday.
The match is scheduled to begin just after 2:30 p.m. and can be listened to on 680 CJOB. This change was made after the league determined that the three-game series could not be completed within the originally scheduled timeframe.
