Grade-basedDivisions

Keep players, evaluations, and teams organized around the NJB division structure your chapter offers.

Fair-requestFormation

Use shared evaluation evidence and criteria-driven optimization to balance teams while treating friend requests as preferences.

Team-firstScheduling

Once teams exist, build games around gym space, coach availability, blackouts, and division rules.

The NJB chapter playbook

Team formation and gym scheduling are one sequence.

NJB’s public guidance notes that game and practice schedules follow team formation and depend on gym and coach availability. Bravara preserves that dependency instead of starting with an empty calendar.

  1. 01 · Divide

    Start with the chapter’s grade structure

    Import registrations into the appropriate D1–D5 divisions, then manage approved play-up decisions without losing the original player record.

  2. 02 · Evaluate

    Run a clear evaluation day

    Score basketball skills in the gym and keep no-show or late-registration players visible for board placement instead of dropping them from the process.

  3. 03 · Form

    Balance teams and requests together

    Optimize evaluation scores across the whole division while honoring coach-child assignments and eligible friend requests—giving the chapter a better chance at closer games.

  4. 04 · Schedule

    Solve the season around real availability

    Use the approved teams, gym spaces, time windows, coach blackouts, game lengths, and weekly limits to generate the chapter schedule.

Where NJB gets specific

Grade bands, requests, and gym time all change the formation decision.

This is the bridge between basketball team building and a chapter schedule—not a duplicate of either product page.

Grade / division

Where should the player be evaluated and placed?

Friend request

Can the request be granted without competitive advantage?

Gym + coach availability

When can the formed teams actually play?

The NJB handoff

Approved teams become the schedule inputs.

Bravara already knows the division, roster, coach, and team. Add gym spaces and availability, generate the season, then publish games to those same people and team calendars.
