2026 NABC Division III Tournaments Credential Application

The NABC accepts NABC Division III Tournaments media credential applications from eligible media based on guidelines outlined below. Credentialed media are expected to comply with all terms and conditions placed on credential approval. Credential approval decisions are at the discretion of NABC staff. The deadline to apply for 2026 NABC Division III Tournaments credentials is December 11, 2026.

 

Credential Policy

NABC Division III Tournaments credentials may be issued to working members of the media only, including those in print, digital, television, radio, photography, and videography. Credentials will be assigned only to media outlets that are a legally established entity and that regularly cover national college basketball and/or one of the event’s participating teams. Pending space availability, some media may be placed in overflow seating during the event. Credentials are non-transferable; any unauthorized transfer will result in loss of credential privileges with no exceptions.

 

Miscellaneous Eligibility Policies

  • Freelance reporters, photographers or videographers will not be credentialed unless they are working under a specific assignment for an established media outlet. The NABC may request confirmation of the freelance assignment from a representative of the media outlet.
  • Credentials will not be assigned for the sole purpose of personal social media content, personal podcasts, personal content portfolios, or any other personal use.
  • Having been credentialed for a previous NABC event does not automatically qualify an outlet or individual for credentials.
  • Membership in a writers’ or broadcasters’ association (i.e. USBWA) does not automatically qualify an individual for credentials.

 

Live Video Policy

Non-originating media outlets may record live standups or other content on event day before and after the broadcast windows begin and end. Recordings must take place in an off-court corner of the arena bowl or outside of the playing area. No live transmission of any kind will be permitted during the broadcast windows.
