NEW NCAA COACHING REQUIREMENTS – APPLY EARLY!!
The NCAA recently announced that in order to participate in coaching activities or sit on the team bench at an NCAA-certified event, coaches are required to obtain a USA Basketball (USAB) License. This applies to 15U-17U teams at our certified events.
Teams without the USAB Licensed coaches will not be allowed to create rosters on the BBCS, and will not be able to participate in the NCAA-certified portion of our events.
Allow 3 weeks for processing. APPLY EARLY!
NOTES
- Returning users should RENEW their previous account and NOT create a new one.
- The USA Basketball Coach License expires on August 31 each season.

REMINDER:
- Teams who have not completed all of the above steps WILL NOT be allowed to participate in the NCAA certified portion of the tournament.
Coaches are expected to keep their online rosters updated. The same address and telephone number cannot be utilized for multiple athletes.
In addition, it is not an acceptable practice for prospects’ coaches to substitute their own demographic information for that of a prospective student-athlete.
Failure to register or submit all required information will result in the team being denied participation in all NCAA certified events.
