"We've had more games than every being played across all our competitions," he said.

"There's been minimal impact from COVID-19 which has been good for us ... we're very fortunate to basically be able to continue our season as we normally would."

Launceston's junior competition experienced a 12 per cent increase in participation this season - the equivalent of 33 full teams. Due to Launceston's ongoing issues with sufficient courts, the LBA shifted the division one leagues for younger age groups to the summer, dubbing it the junior summer premier league.

Duhig said this allowed for top junior players in Launceston to also compete in the North-West's Tasmanian Junior Basketball League, which runs across the middle of the year.

"Kids can enjoy basketball all-year-round at the highest level, playing in the premier league div one terms four and one, then playing for Launceston in the TJBL in terms two and three," he said.

As for the senior competition, the season continues to build the already stacked portfolios of Launceston's premier players including Sejr Deans and Jai Lette.

"To be able to compete at the highest level, you need regular, strong competition against the best you can - it's the only way to get better," Duhig said.

"These guys who are playing in the highest league in the region against each other, it does great stuff for the sport locally and gives role models for the younger players to look up to and what they can achieve.

"It's great for the guys themselves to continue developing their skills, particularly when they have opportunities on the horizon like US colleges."

In this regard, the LBA has also benefitted from the use of game-capturing platform Glory League.

The system records games and automatically bookmarks highlights linked to scoring updates and other noteworthy moments noted by officials. Duhig said Launceston's engagement with Glory League was among the best in the state.

"We've had some of the highest engagement in Glory League from our members," he said.

"We've had some players looking to create a highlight reel to share with colleges or places interstate, they've been using Glory League to do that."
