Formation of the NABC began when Joint Basketball Rules Committee, then the central governing authority of the game, announced without notice that it had adopted a change in the rules which virtually eliminated dribbling. Allen, a student of basketball founder James Naismith, organized a nationwide protest which ultimately resulted in the dribble remaining part of the game.[2]
In 1939, the NABC held the first national basketball tournament in Evanston, Illinois at the Northwestern Fieldhouse.[1]Oregon defeated Ohio State for the first tournament championship. The next year, the NABC asked the NCAA to take over the administration of the tournament.[1] In exchange, the NCAA provided complimentary tickets for NABC members to the Finals and placed an NABC member on its Tournament Committee.[1]
NABC annually names its All-District Teams, which honors the top Division I players in each district. Regions are divided by college athletic conferences.
