The National Badminton League (NBL) was a professional team badminton league in England. Organised by Badminton England, it was launched in October 2014 as the first ever national badminton league in the UK. Reaching seven franchise teams in its third and final season (16-17), the inaugural season launched with six teams. Team matches were played with an abbreviated scoring system across all five disciplines (best-of-five games, first four games played to nine points) and tie–break format (fifth game to five points), with one match each match night being broadcast live on Sky Sports in the first two seasons. The 16-17 season was broadcast on BT Sport. On 29 March 2017, it was announced on the National Badminton League website that it would cease operations with immediate effect.
