The Rankings 

3rd thru 8th Grade teams have the ability to achieve points through selected AAU Licensed events. Points are based on a total percentage of 100% with three different stages of events a team can gain points. Each level has been assigned a percentage that is then added to the final point total to calculate the total.  Teams are able to earn more points depending on the division of the event assigned by the host (DI DII or DIII).  Here are the levels

FAQs

How is an event selected? 
​

Select Events would have to have the recommendation of the District Sports Director (DSD) in order to be considered.  After receiving the endorsement of the DSD, the event will be stamped with the Select Event stamp and placed on the rankings website.  All events that are selected are required to use tournament select for all team rosters.
 
Premier Events are those that are selected by the AAU National Basketball Staff on behalf of the Boys and Girls Basketball Executive Committee.  Event Operators would submit their application for their event to be licensed as a premier event.  After receiving the endorsement the event will be stamped with the Premier Event stamp and placed on the rankings website. All events that are chosen are required to use tournament select for all team rosters
