We are excited to launch the 2025/26 Dynamik National Schools Basketball Season! Whether you're a returning team or have expressed interest in joining us for the first time, we're excited to have you involved in what promises to be an exciting year of school basketball.
New Platform: PlayHQ
This season, all Basketball England leagues and competitions – including Dynamik Schools – will operate on a new digital platform called PlayHQ.
This new digital system will allow us to collect everything from team registrations to results. Launching in September will be the Basketball England GameTime app powered by PlayHQ. This will allow better visibility of league fixtures, results and standings.
In September, we’ll also host online training sessions in partnership with PlayHQ to support teachers and coaches in using the system. Further details on how to register for these sessions will be sent out at the end of summer.
Key Season Dates & Structure
Please take a moment to review the structure and key dates below to ensure your teams can fully commit:
The finals are usually held in March and May where the final teams battle it out to be crowned the Dynamik National Schools Champions!
We have also linked with the Youth Sports Trust’s School Games who have helped us put on county and school events to give lots of opportunities for people in education the chance to have game competition experience.
The competition consists of pools of teams that compete against each other to reach the playoffs. Teams who progress then compete in knockout fixtures as they try and make their way to the final in which the best two teams battle it out to be crowned champions.
For more information on your school’s route to take part in the Dynamik Schools Competition contact our schools team.
The following age groups are available for the coming season:
Note: No players that are registered by the AoC in the WEABL, EABL or CBL are permitted to play in these leagues. This rule will not apply to the National Schools U17 League, which does permit EABL, WEABL and CBL players.
All Under-12 and Under-13 competitions will operate through the Jr. NBA programme. For more information, please email [email protected]
