What's the official title/term for this league? Is it SEABL, Big V or what? I just want to frame the topic title properly.
D-League will get it confused with the NBA D-League and "ABL D League" may get people in SA thinking "WE HAVE A D-LEAGUE?!!?"

Ok I am with Isaac. Confusing.
So this is the "Basketball Victoria D League", as opposed to the "BigV State Youth Championship". I thought it was the SEABL D-League.

In effect Basketball Victoria now has two Youth leagues running side by side (not sure whether to put an exclamation mark or a question mark after that).
It's the Basketball Victoria D League or BVDL. Basketball Victoria incorporated the D League under their banner in the offseason as part of SEABL's transition into Basketball Australia.

Big V and Basketball Victoria are separate entities, so both U23 leagues aren't really under the same banner.
My understanding is that it was put to Big V Youth League programs to merge with D League, however only 1 or 2 teams from Big V were keen to do so.

Anon, BigV is Victoria's competition. Might be a separately run organisation, but BV is still its governing body, same as for VJBL.
