Ask the CEO

October 2, 2007 - American Basketball Association (ABA) News Release


Question from James W, NYC: "Congratulations on the new NYC Internationalz. Sounds like a great concept. I know that the ABA has red, white and blue basketballs and hats for sale, but does the league and teams have specialty items like water bottles, towels, backpacks, watches etc. with logos on them for sale? And how do I get them?"

Answer: James. Thanks for the question. I cannot believe the timing of this question. Amazing. You must be psychic. On Friday, the ABA came to an agreement to manufacture a large variety of specialty items like those you mentioned that will be available on the ABA web site, the teams' web sites and at the various teams' venues during the season. We are now in the process of producing the items. They will be very good quality and very affordably priced and will make great souvenirs. They will also make great Christmas presents and stocking stuffers. We will make the official announcement very shortly and will post the 5-10 items on the ABA web site (www.abalive.com). The teams will do the same with their team logo merchandise. Watch for the announcement. If you have a question, email conniejoenewman@aol.com.

Note: OurSports Central no longer actively covers the American Basketball Association (ABA) as a professional league due in part to its inability to publish and play a schedule and the transitory nature of many of its teams. For information on professional minor leagues, please see OSC's basketball section.
