National Basketball League seasons

The 1982–83 Just Juice National Basketball League season was the eleventh season of the National Basketball League formed in 1972.[1]

The league was sponsored by Just Juice for the second consecutive year and Crystal Palace won yet another league title but Sunderland claimed the Play Off's and the Solent Stars successfully defended their National Cup crown.[2]
The league received a welcome boost when a new national TV channel called Channel 4 decided to show live action every Monday evening.

Team changes

Leicester returned to top tier action as the one new team admitted to the expanded 13 team first division which retained the previous twelve members. Team Talbot, Guildford Pirates moved to Bracknell and became the Bracknell Pirates. Sunderland Saints became Sunderland Maestros towards the end of the season following a new two year sponsorship deal with a North East car dealer.
The leagues most famous player Alton Byrd left Crystal Palace to join Murray International Edinburgh.

Nickel-Hydrogen batteries for Hubble[1] Batteries are used on spacecraft as a means of power storage. Primary batteries contain all their usable energy when assembled and can only be discharged.

Batteries generate electrical current from a chemical reaction. Batteries for space...
