The Saskatchewan Rattlers of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) announced their schedule for the 2025 season on Wednesday, which is proudly presented by Tourism Saskatchewan.
www.oursportscentral.comHere’s the latest publicly available update on the 2025 CEBL season.
- The 2025 CEBL season featured a record 120 regular-season games plus seven playoff games, extending the schedule to 24 games per team for the first time. This was part of a rollout described as the league’s longest season in its history, with play running from May through August 2025.[1][4][5]
- The expanded format included all 10 teams visiting every CEBL city in 2025, and showcased a number of multi-game “quadrupleheaders” and weekend-dominant scheduling to maximize fan attendance and exposure. Championship Weekend (CW25) was hosted in Winnipeg, including the Conference Finals doubleheader and the Championship Final on August 24.[3][4]
- Multiple outlets confirmed the anticipated start around May 11, 2025, with Edmonton hosting the season opener for the Stingers against the Calgary Surge, and the playoffs concluding in late August 2025.[5][1]
Illustration: The league’s 2025 plan included two key changes: (1) a 24-game regular season (up from 20) and (2) a seven-game playoff slate, culminating in CW25 in Winnipeg. This combination aimed to increase both competitive depth and regional fan engagement across Canada.[4][1]
