The Kenya Basketball Federation is planning a gradual resumption of the Basketball Premier League action as from this weekend.
The KBF Secretary Joseph Amoko confirmed that the fixtures will be released in the course of the week but will not be expected to have too many matches on the reopening weekend.
The league games wont fully resume this weekend as it will need some time since teams require adequate time to prepare adequately for the resumption of the league.
All teams that participate in the top flight league will be required to undertake Covid tests not more than 72 hours before the game and present the result an hour before the game.
The Basketball Federation will require a team list of all club's delegates for each matchday to be presented in advance for admission at the gate as no fans will be allowed to the match venues.
With four continental assignments lined up for clubs and countries in the coming months, it will be a race against time for the club and national teams to be at par with their opponents from the region.
In the women's league, champions Equity Bank and runners-up Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) will be involved in the FIBA Women Africa Club Championships.
The national women and men teams are also scheduled to play at the FIBA Africa AfroBasket qualifiers and finals in July and August respectively and thus the urge to resume the league real quick so as players can gain match fitness ahead of the continental tasks ahead.
