History

The Big V Conference was established in 2000 and joined the Australian Basketball Association (ABA).[1] The ABA ceased operations following the 2008 season, resulting in the Big V becoming independent.[2]

The 2020 season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3][4][5]

As of 2024, the league's premier divisions are Championship Men and Championship Women. The Big V also has Division One and Division Two as well as a number of youth divisions.[6]

Victorian Basketball League

In 1987, a precursor league to the Big V was established. A women's competition was introduced first followed by a men's competition in 1989. It was known by many names, including Victorian Women's Conference, Country Victorian Invitation Basketball League (CVIBL), and Victorian Basketball League (VBL).[7][8][14][15] From 2000 onwards, the VBL's divisions transitioned into becoming Big V's Division One and Division Two under Championship Men and Championship Women.[7][8]
