How It Works
32 Teams Compete
Every team makes the playoffs! No one is left out of championship contention.
3-Game Regular Season
Teams compete in 3 games to determine playoff division placement.
After the regular season, the top 16 teams advance to the Black Division playoffs, while the lower 16 teams compete in the Gold Division playoffs.
Both divisions crown a champion with a $150 prize! Every team has a shot at the championship. 🏆
- IBA may ask teams to split up if their skill level is significantly higher than other teams.
- Teams should refrain from having multiple players who have played basketball at any level higher than high school.
- Any team found to be purposefully losing games in order to be placed into the Gold Division bracket will be immediately disqualified from the tournament.

What if we cannot make it to our scheduled game?
If your team cannot attend, you may forfeit the game or contact the opposing team directly to request a reschedule. Please provide as much advance notice as possible.
