Federación Andaluza de Baloncesto

What Federación Andaluza de Baloncesto does

Federación Andaluza de Baloncesto (FAB) is the official regional governing body for basketball in Andalusia, Spain, founded in 1950 and operating under the national Federación Española de Baloncesto (FEB). Headquartered in Córdoba, FAB administers the sport across eight provincial delegations (Almería, Cádiz, Córdoba, Granada, Huelva, Jaén, Málaga, Sevilla) plus Melilla, serving 70+ affiliated clubs and tens of thousands of licensed players, coaches, and referees. Its mandate covers official competition organization (regional N1 leagues, A8 provincial championships, CADEBA and CES national qualifiers), coach and referee certification (Level 0 through state-recognized Técnico Deportivo degrees), youth talent identification through provincial and regional selections, and youth development programs including VALORCESTO and Campus FAB.

FAB's digital ecosystem consists of the Gesdeportiva platform for license management and competition administration (operated by technology partner IndalWeb), the Acta Digital mobile application for referee availability and match reporting, the formacionfab e-learning platform for online coach and referee courses, and fabTV for live and on-demand streaming of competition matches. Revenue is generated through four primary streams: annual federation license fees (subscription/recurring), training course fees (e.g., the Level 1 Coach Course at 300 EUR), competition management services, and corporate sponsorships (Kutxabank, SGM Ingeniería Ambiental, BMS, Covap, Fundación Cajasur, Luanvi, Viajes Azul Marino). Additional funding flows from public subsidies via the Junta de Andalucía and EU Recovery Plan resources channeled through the Superior Sports Council (CSD).

The federation is led by President Antonio de Torres, who concurrently serves as Vice President of FEB, with a directive board comprising three Vice Presidents serving as provincial delegates and additional Vocales representing clubs and the wider membership. FAB operates as a non-profit organization and does not publicly disclose financials. Its commercial activity is governed by its regulatory role rather than market competition, with its principal strategic priorities being talent pipeline development, digital service modernization, and partnerships that extend its social impact profile.
