Commission on Athletics (COA)--Official
Website of the California Community Colleges, featuring all sports,
including basketball for men and women, polls, league standings, scores,
news and more. The 106 California Community Colleges (governed by 71
different administrative agencies known as "Community College Districts")
constitute the single largest educational institution in the world. Member
colleges play within the California Association of Community Colleges. Even
though many of the charter members of the National Junior College Athletic
Association came from the California Community College ranks, no California
JC currently participates as a member of the NJCAA. While the NJCAA schools
compete for a "national championship" in Hutchinson, Kansas each year, the
California Community Colleges compete in Regional Playoffs and for the
California State J.C. Championship.
