The 1990–1991 BBL season was the third season of the British Basketball League (known as the Carlsberg League for sponsorship reasons) since its establishment in 1987. The season featured a total of eight teams, playing 28 games each. Due to the low number of teams, the post-season Play-offs featured only the top four teams from the regular season instead of the usual top eight finishers.

Kingston claimed the Division One title and Play-off crown,[1] as well as the NatWest League Trophy.
