On Sunday, November 30th, the Jersey Basketball Association kicked off its inaugural season with 13 games at three venues in Westfield.  With a DJ and Internet radio on hand, the fans were treated to some exciting contests including two overtime classics.  The JBA would like to thank Westfield basketball for hosting the event and all the participants for their efforts in making the start of the JBA season a memorable one.

As of Friday, November 28th at 6:15 PM, all Coach Logins have been sent.  If you did not receive your login information, either your town/organization director did not submit coach and/or contact information or we were provided an incorrect email address.  If the latter was the case and we had a phone number for you, you were left with a message.  If the former, please contact us with name, mobile phone, and email address.  Thank you.

First drafts of schedules for all divisions have been posted on this website.  With the large numbers of date exclusions and limited gym availability for many of our towns and organizations, this has been a challenging process for those of us involved in scheduling.  This process has become even more onerous as some towns/organizations have eliminated teams that had already been scheduled and added new teams or requested changes of division for existing teams (again, that had already been scheduled).

Many of you have already contacted us to provide information on conflicts in your individual team schedules.  We encourage all of our teams’ coaches to carefully review their schedules and provide us with conflict and error information.  As we have indicated previously, we know that the schedules as posted are imperfect and are working to resolve all issues.  Our priority is to resolve issues first in the games scheduled for December and then work our way through other conflicts and errors in chronological order.  Should we need the assistance of the head coaches or town/organization directors in the resolution process, we will contact you.

We at the JBA thank you for your patience and input.  Have a Happy Thanksgiving and a great start to your seasons.

Coach Logins are currently being developed and will trickle out over the course of the next 10-12 days.  The Logins will permit winning Head Coaches to enter scores of their games as well as view the privacy-protected areas of the Team/Coach Info page.

Since the conclusion of our Coaches’ Meetings, we have been busily preparing schedules. With all of the exclusions and limited gym availability of some of our teams, we’re sure you can appreciate the difficulty of this task.  All of our schedules are a work in progress. However, some of them are in complete enough form to begin posting.  We understand that the schedules as posted may contain some errors and appreciate your review and commentary.  We will have all schedules posted by Thanksgiving.
