The National Association of Basketball Coaches was founded in 1927 and since its inception, the NABC has acted as a guardian of the game of basketball by furthering the best interests of the game as well as the players and coaches who participate.
The association currently has approximately 5000 members consisting of university, college, jr. college and high school coaches, with affiliate memberships afforded to athletic directors, other collegiate basketball team personnel and youth basketball coaches.
The NABC holds its annual convention and exhibition each spring at the host city of the NCAA Men's Final Four. Over 3500 NABC members converge on the Final Four city to engage in five days of meetings, professional development, social events and the Final Four.
The NABC engages in many efforts to enhance the college basketball experience for players, coaches and fans. The association's website, NABC.com, features the activities of the NABC and also serves as a worldwide resource for information concerning basketball and coaching.
The NABC's executive offices are located in Overland Park, Kansas. By 2003, the association will move its national headquarters to historic Municipal Hall in downtown Kansas City, Missouri.
