Lingerie Basketball League
The Lingerie Basketball League (LBL) was a women's basketball league, created in 2011.[1] The Lingerie Basketball League was set up after the success of the Legends Football League, originally called the Lingerie Football League. Like the LFL, players in the LBL wear revealing outfits instead of traditional uniforms.[2]
