With its sophomore season set to get underway Friday, the B. League held a regular general assembly to select board members and auditors for a new two-year term, and approved them in a temporary board of directors meeting on Wednesday.

Masaaki Okawa, the inaugural chairman of the men's top basketball circuit, was re-elected, while nine others were also reappointed to the governing board as trustees.

Among those who will serve their second term include Japan Basketball Association senior managing director Michihiro Tanaka, JBA technical director Tomoya Higashino, Ryukyu Golden Kings president Tatsuro Kimura and Alvark Tokyo president Kunihiko Hayashi.
