Liverpool Basketball joins Super League for 2026‑27 season

Super League Basketball announced the addition of a landmark 10th franchise, Liverpool Basketball, which will compete in the 2026‑27 season. The club will be based at the M&S Bank Arena on Liverpool’s waterfront and is owned by Kings Dock Sports Group Ltd, the sports‑holding company founded by media executive and investor Jason Dolan.

Dolan said the aim is to build a professional club that reflects Liverpool’s character, inspires young people and attracts world‑class talent. The franchise is presented as a long‑term investment for the league and a new civic institution for the city, with plans for community programmes, staffing appointments and a playing roster to be revealed in the coming weeks.
