Basketball league season
The 2015–16 Serie A2 season , known for sponsorship reasons as the Serie A2 Citroën , was the 42nd season of the Italian basketball second league Serie A2 Basket . The season started on October 4, 2015 and ended on June 23, 2016 with the last game of the promotion playoffs finals.[ 2]
The season is composed of 32 teams with a regional subdivision in two equal groups of sixteen, East and West. Each team plays the others in its subgroup twice, the first ranked team of each group then plays the eighth ranked team of the other group (e.g. East #1 against West #8), then the second best against the seventh, and so on, to form a promotion playoffs (for one place) of sixteen teams.[ 3]
