In an official statement, Israeli Winner League has announced that the season will resume next Wednesday, May 19, with an end-of-season bubble to be played in Eliat.
Per the league’s official statement: “The BSL board of directors decided today that Winner League will resume on Wednesday, May 19th, in a bubble in Eilat. Teams will be able to go to Eilat and resume practices starting today, in order to prepare themselves for Wednesday. If the current security situation in Israel will change for the better, the league will resume regular activities in the teams’ home arenas, a day after the end of the current situation. The BSL sees the safety and security of the players with the utmost importance. The BSL respects and understands the players’ feelings and believes that this solution will allow everyone to return to action, despite the current situation. The bubble in Eilat will be managed by the BSL’s administration and will have 3 games per day, starting Wednesday“.
Foreign players took to social media to protest the decision, with Maccabi’s Othello Hunter saying that “once again you just showed the world that entertainment is more important than the safety of people“.
