As of May 1st, the AAU will begin to evaluate lifting the temporary suspension of AAU events in certain areas of the country. This first phase of re-opening AAU event programming will only apply to select locales where it has been deemed safe to do so.
The AAU takes the safety of athletes, coaches and officials at its events seriously. This past weekend, an on-court incident at a Georgia basketball event was NOT an AAU event.

The AAU is extending the temporary suspension of licensed events through April 15th. We hope that AAU events will resume in the very near future. We continue to consult with local officials and health experts to ensure the safety of AAU Participants.
Pat Summitt might’ve been the best AAU coach there was. But what she saw off the court was even more important. She saw the AAU Basketball was helping her son surround himself with good people. Good friends. Thank you Pat!
