About Manchester Basketball

Manchester Basketball are an English professional basketball team based in the city of Manchester, that compete in Super League Basketball.

Following the removal of the professional league licence of the British Basketball League, a new top-flight basketball competition, Super League Basketball, was announced. The Manchester franchise in the previous competition, the Manchester Giants, were owned by the league due to a previous period of administration in 2023, and as such the club's brand and intellectual rights were held in the now-defunct company. A Manchester franchise for the new competition was acquired by Sherwood Family Investment Office, led by Ned Sherwood, with the franchise to be led by Ben Pierson. The team's name and brand were announced in September 2024.
