The Basketball Africa Coach of the Year Award is an annual Basketball Africa League (BAL) award given to the best coach of a given season. The award was first handed out in the 2022 season to José Neto.[1]
The winner of the award is based on two criteria: developed a mutually respectful relationship with league, game officials, media, opponents and fans; and had the best results based on the resources at their disposal.[2]
The winner of the awards is decided by voting by all head coaches and two assistant coaches per team, which cannot vote on a coach on their same team.[2]
