The Tri-Cities Youth Basketball Association (TCYBA) is preparing for its Fall/Winter 2026/27 season, with registration starting today. The association, which serves over 2,000 players from Kindergarten to Grade 12 across Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, New Westminster, and Burnaby, will implement a three-phase registration process to accommodate both returning and new athletes.

Phase 1 of registration will run from June 1 to June 7, 2026, exclusively for returning players from the Fall/Winter 2025-26 season who intend to remain with their current teams. Following this, Phase 2 will be held from June 8 to June 14, 2026, allowing returning players from both the Fall/Winter 2025-26 and Spring 2026 seasons to register for any team with available openings. The final Phase 3 will begin on June 15, 2026, opening registration to all new players and any returning players who have not yet secured a spot. This phase will continue through September 2026.

The Development League, catering to boys' and girls' teams from Grade 3/4 through Grades 11/12, is set to begin its season the week of September 21, 2026, and conclude the week of March 8, 2027. A winter break is scheduled from December 5, 2026, to January 3, 2027.

For younger athletes, the Rookie Division will offer two distinct sessions for Kindergarten through Grade 3 coed and girls-only teams. The Fall Session #1 will start the week of September 28, 2026, and will include 10 practices. A second Winter Session #2 is planned to begin the week of January 4, 2027, also comprising 10 practices. Currently, TCYBA is only accepting registrations for the Fall Session #1.

Prospective participants and their families are encouraged to review the Registration Information, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), and League Structure resources available on the TCYBA website prior to registering. The association anticipates another season of growth, teamwork, and enjoyment for all players.
