Canada Basketball is seeking additional basketball clubs to join the National Verification Program heading into the 2024-25 season. At the moment, New Brunswick has no Canada Basketball Verified Clubs.
What is the Canada Basketball Verification Program?
The Canada Basketball Verification Program aims to provide all stakeholders involved with the game - athletes, parents, coaches, officials, and organizers - with assurance that their “Verified” organization not only aligns with the best practices for basketball programming in Canada, but also delivers an experience for all basketball participants in a welcoming, safe, and inclusive environment.
The Canada Basketball Verification Program is now available for free to all Canadian basketball clubs, associations, and community groups. It integrates three pillars:
1. Safe Sport & Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI)
Ensuring appropriate participant safety and inclusion
2. Technical Skills
Teaching the game through developmentally appropriate skills
3. Governance & Administration
Managing the operations of your organization

Free access to Game Plan
Canada Basketball’s comprehensive coach education program
Custom “Verified” branding for use on their website and social media
Discounted Canada Basketball merchandise
