The BBL Player Movement Window has closed, with seven players finding a new home for the KFC BBL|15 season.

The BBL’s inaugural Window, which followed the first WBBL Window in December, ran for 10 days immediately after the BBL|14 Final.

During the period, clubs could sign Eligible Free Agents to their lists, or trade contracted domestic players between clubs.

The players to move during the BBL Window are listed below.

Jason Behrendorff – Eligible Free Agent (Perth Scorchers) to Melbourne Renegades

Brendan Doggett – Eligible Free Agent (Adelaide Strikers) to Melbourne Renegades

Liam Hatcher – Eligible Free Agent (Sydney Thunder) to Melbourne Stars

Caleb Jewell – Hobart Hurricanes to Melbourne Renegades

Joel Paris – Eligible Free Agent (Melbourne Stars) to Perth Scorchers

Mitchell Swepson – Eligible Free Agent (Brisbane Heat) to Melbourne Stars

Beau Webster – Eligible Free Agent (Melbourne Stars) to Hobart Hurricanes

The Contracting Embargo remains in place for both the BBL and WBBL. No new or renewed agreements can be entered into by any club until it is lifted in the coming weeks.

Once the Embargo lifts, clubs may sign further domestic players to their list. Clubs may also sign a maximum of one overseas player, if they do not already have one.
