Through the fusion of 3x3 and local events, we aim to further contribute to the revitalization of the regions. The 2026 season will span 29 dates from April to October across 18 locations for both men and women. As a professional league approved by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) and certified by the Japan Basketball Association (JBA), we encourage you to pay close attention to the various teams and players who not only produce numerous national team athletes but also engage in multifaceted activities such as regional revitalization through 3x3. * ALL Conference refers to a tournament format where all men's teams gather to compete for the championship.
