Michaelhouse (MHS) National Basketball Association (NBA) Junior League
The league will have 66 games played across two conferences (Eastern and Western). Each conference has 6 teams who will play each other team in their conference once (5 intra-conference games per team) and each of the teams in the other conference once (6 inter-conference games per team). At the end of the regular season the top 3 teams in each conference's standings will participate in the playoffs to see who is the eventual champion. The champion team will be treated to pizzas at VdeV.
