Central Basketball Association of the Deaf
There are currently 6 regions affiliated with USADB before Dec 31, 2009 deadline:

SEAAD, MAAD, EAAD, NWDBA, SWBAD, FAAD

Since we are a player-based organization, we made a decision that may not sit well with some of you--but, we feel we are respecting the needs of the players. One new region has been granted provisional affiliation for 2010 tournament in order that the central area teams have a place to play under USADB. That new region is CBAD. This will need to be ratified at the HOD in order to continue affiliation past May 1, 2010. Any dissention between CAAD and CBAD will need to be resolved between the two regions. The central area teams/players must decide what is best for them.

Hi Doug,

Thank you for sharing your CBAD website news with USADB. I personally had a chance to have a quick look and LOVED the "Breaking News" sign- neat! On USADB's website, CBAD's website is now posted under Region link.

USADB is looking forward to see CBAD's family as well as all other affiliated regional family at USADB National Tourney in Kentucky!

Sincerely,

Amy Ellis
USADB Interim Secretary
