Finally, a Professional Sports League for Breaking
All sports require equipment. Companies that profit from selling the equipment sponsor the events, the leagues and the athletes. Breaking relies only on the physical movements of the body and doesn’t offer companies opportunities to get rich because there isn’t any equipment Breakers need from them.
Breaking competitions throughout the world are classified as dance competitions and are organized independently allowing the rules, format and judging to change based on the event’s organizer. The lack of cohesion in Breaking is the main reason competitive breaking continues to be deemed a dance competition.
Organizers and promoters of competitive Breaking events do not promote the Breakers as athletes. Sponsors, manufacturers and apparel companies do not invest in Breaking because there aren’t enough fans following the breakers to influence purchasing of their products.

In 2015, World Bboy Battle, led by founder and Bboy pioneer Frankie Sirswift Hernandez created a professional sports league for Breaking to serve as a “catalyst and leader in helping b-boys make a career out of b-boying.” WBB continues to promote its athletes, features an easy to follow Bboy sport and scoring system, and pays all its athletes to compete in addition to awarding additional prize money. This August 27th, at BMCC Tribeca PAC, event goers of all ages in the NYC and Tri-State area can enjoy a Bboy Sports Game “near me”. Finally.
