    What is BasketballSim?
    BasketballSim, or BBallSim, is Cricsim.com's official basketball competition. Players can register as a basketball rookie and compete for glory with one of our seven current franchises.

    How do I register?
    Registering for BBallSim is an easy process. Registrations are accepted in this thread. Players can choose from one of the five positions in basketball and then customise their player in a variety of ways. Extra information is available in the Registration Thread.

    Which position should I be?
    Whichever position you wish to be. A description of each position will be available below.

    What do I do after I register?
    After you register you should post in the Negotiations Thread and express your interest in joining a team. Hopefully you'll be contacted by a representative of one of our franchises to be offered a contract for the current or coming season.

    Nah, I'm happy for it to be public. Any hint of spam and I'll just infract.

    I don't think there's much chance of that happening here though.

    I'm actually surprised by how low I am on that list, thought I'd have been a bit higher. Though I guess my posting here really consists of a :toot: at the start of the game and another one if we win
