However the KABB has also had a number of approaches from clubs and schools who are still getting to grips with how the new school year will look and some of the school halls which clubs used might not be available for the next few months at least.

Therefore the KABB has decided that competitions will commence by January 2021 with team registrations to be completed by November and fixtures released in December.

AGM: The KABB has also announced following its committee meeting that the AGM will take place immediately the Government moves the country into Phase 4 of the re-opening pathway and groups of more than 50 can meet indoors.
