In this episode, I chat with Mike Morreale, the CEO and Commissioner of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL), Canada's professional basketball league. 


Mike was an all-star football player at McMaster University and went on to have a monstrous 12 year career in the CFL. 


This included:


- 2 Time Grey Cup Champion – 1996,1999


- CFL Most Outstanding Canadian Player - 2008


- Grey Cup Canadian MVP – 1999


Post CFL, Mike held the role of President at CFL Players Association. Subsequently, he held the position of Director at Airsprint.


In 2018, Mike led the launch of CEBL's first inaugural season and in May 2019 launched the first season across Canada. Inaugural teams are located in Saskatoon, Edmonton, Fraser Valley, Hamilton, Guelph, and Niagara. In 2020 the CEBL welcomed its 7th team the Ottawa BlackJacks. The CEBL provides sports fans, partners, and sponsors with a premium entertainment option while growing the sport of basketball at the highest level in Canada. The CEBL is the Official Men’s Division 1 Professional Partner of Canada Basketball


The 2020 season dubbed the “CEBL Summer Series” saw the CEBL become the first pro league to return to play in Canada during the COVID pandemic and subsequently finish with 26 games and a new Champion the Edmonton Stingers.
