History

Historical Context

After a 45-year ban on state basketball championships, the New York State Education Department approved the first boys Federation tournament in 1978, extending the effort to standardize high-school sport rules begun by the NYSPHSAA in 1923, which now serves 768 schools. This reform legacy underpins today’s district alignments and tournament seeding.
