NBL announces partnership with Choice Hotels for NBL26

Thursday, September 11, 2025

Choice Hotels has joined the National Basketball League as an official partner, presenting the perfect opportunity for travelling fans and basketball families.

The National Basketball League (NBL) is pleased to announce a new partnership with Choice Hotels ahead of the Hungry Jack’s NBL26 Season.

As basketball continues its rapid growth across Australia and New Zealand, with record participation rates and more young people playing than ever before, the demand for accessible and reliable accommodation options has never been greater.

Choice Hotels joins the league as an official partner, presenting the perfect opportunity for travelling fans and basketball families who follow their teams or take part in competitions around the country.

“The NBL is experiencing unprecedented growth, not only at the professional level but also in grassroots participation, particularly among young players,” Chief Partnerships Officer, Shenae Beus said. “Partnering with Choice Hotels allows us to better support our fans, families and the wider basketball community by making travel to games and tournaments more convenient and comfortable. We’re thrilled to have them on board for NBL26 and beyond.”

“This partnership is more than a branding move for us, it’s about aligning with a fast-growing, high energy sport that shares our values of bold ambition, community connection and delivering unforgettable experiences,” Choice Hotels Asia-Pac Senior Director, Commercial and Revenue Management Kari Hunter said.

The partnership ensures that fans travelling to support their favourite teams will benefit from the accessibility and reach of Choice Hotels’ extensive network across Australia and New Zealand, while also aligning the NBL with an organisation that shares its values of community, connection and excellence.

Together, the NBL and Choice Hotels are committed to delivering an outstanding season on and off the court, making it easier than ever for basketball supporters to connect with the game they love.
