WHY JOIN THE AAU? (Check out the AAU website at )

The sport of Men's Basketball is one of many offered by the Amateur Athletic Union sports program. Through its nationwide network of local associations, the AAU offers outstanding service to its members. Here are some reasons why you should be a member of the AAU:

1. The AAU has a nationwide network of sports administration professionals and volunteers.

2. The AAU provides opportunities for participation in national, regional and local basketball tournaments and clinics.

3. Membership in the AAU is inexpensive. The annual membership for adults is only $20.00-- includes insurance. Additional coverage is available for $23.50. Please see the AAU insurance brochure for more information. Go to and click link to insurance.

4. AAU membership provides each member with accident insurance (which is secondary and comes into force after any primary coverage) for all properly sanctioned AAU events. AAU membership also provides each member with similar coverage during supervised practices of member clubs. Specific details on coverage, exclusions, and how to file a claim can be obtained from your local AAU Association.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED

1. The Men's AAU National Officers -- Executive Board, Regional Chairpersons and Association Chairpersons are all volunteers. We need more volunteers to assist with expanding AAU Men's competition opportunities and always welcome your involvement.

2. Consider developing your own league or getting involved with the local recreation department to develop AAU competition.

3. Please read this brochure and contact the local AAU Association in your area, the Regional Chairperson listed in your area or the AAU National Headquarters.
