Den 1994-1995 BBL sæson var kendt som Budweiser Liga for sponsorering årsager. Sæsonen indeholdt i alt 13 hold, der spillede 36 spil hver. En større ændring så, at Guildford Kings- franchisen foldede sig på grund af, at klubben ikke var i stand til at forhandle en levedygtig kontrakt med ejerne af Guildford Spectrum . Ligaen solgte Kings licens til en gruppe ledet af Robert Earl, Ed Simons og Harvey Goldsmith, der etablerede Leopards . Oldham Celtics faldt ned en division til National League Division One.
Begynderne Sheffield Sharks, tidligere Sheffield Forgers, vandt den almindelige sæson og hævdede titlen i deres rookiesæson ud over at blive National Cup- mestre. Seventh-seed Worthing Bears forårsagede en enorm forstyrrelse i play-off efter sæsonen for at tage Championship-kronen med en mindeværdig sejr over Manchester Giants i finalen. De Thames Valley Tigers sikret BBL Trophy.
