The Liga U will be the Spanish youth basketball league for players under the age of 22 that will be managed jointly by the Asociación de Clubs de Baloncesto (ACB) and the Spanish Basketball Federation (FEB).
This league was created with the aim to provide opportunities for young players who struggle to play regular time in the Liga ACB due to its high competitive level, while also will allow them to continue their academic training as will be closely linked to higher education. It emerges in response to the economic growth in college basketball in the NCAA due to the NIL rights.
It will be supported by the Spanish Sports Council (CSD) and the Ministry of Education which will fund the tournament with a huge public investment of 15 million euros during its first three seasons in a 5 million euros per season.
