NCAA Certification Process
Step 1 – Coaches obtain USAB Gold Licenses This requirement applies to coaches, assistant coaches, and any bench personnel (non-players). If you obtained a USA Basketball Gold License in 2017, you must renew your license in order to coach in 2018. If you are applying for the first time, allow 3 weeks for processing. Renewals are quicker – just log into the USAB site to start the process.
If you are applying for the first time, click here for detailed application instructions from USA Basketball (use the link at the bottom of the USA Basketball instruction page to start your application). You will not be able to enter your rosters on the new BBCS website (step 2) until you complete this process. START EARLY!
Step 2 – Register on the new BBCS
ALL COACHES and ATHLETES must create individual accounts on the NCAA BBCS website. http://BBCS.ncaa.org. Only coaches who have completed Step 1 will be allowed to create an account on the BBCS. Instructions for Coaches | Instructions for Athletes
Step 3 – Build your team roster.
The head coach must then invite their assistant coaches and players to be on their roster through the BBCS website. Click here for detailed instructions on how to build your roster.
REMINDER: Teams who have not completed ALL of the above steps WILL NOT be allowed to participate. Players and coaches who do not appear on the BBCS Team Roster will not be allowed to participate.
