NBTC Coaches Convention

The NBTC Coaches Convention is one of the programs under the National Basketball Training Center (NBTC). In this convention, basketball coaches from collegiate and professional levels get to share their knowledge to coaches from the provinces. It used to be held at the start of a NBTC League season, but is now held during the league's national finals. It is now set to be revived in 2024.

History
In the early years of the NBTC, Eric Altamirano and Alex Compton traveled to different provinces throughout the country to conduct clinics for players and coaches. After realizing it would be better to bring the coaches to Manila, they held a three-day National Coaches' Convention in 2011 which was attended by 200 coaches and included speakers such as Tim Cone, Chot Reyes, and Ricky Dandan.

The 2012 NBTC Coaches' Convention became a joint project of the NBTC and the MVP Sports Foundation (MVPSF). It was held at the launch of the 2012–13 season of the NBTC League, with 280 attendees and speakers including Altamirano, Cone, Josh Reyes, Koy Banal, Bo Perasol, and Sandy Arrespacochaga. Attendance to the convention is mandatory for NBTC League coaches.

The 2016 edition reached 1,000 attendees. Speakers included Cone, Norman Black, Tab Baldwin, and Boris Aldeguer. Attendees continued increasing with each year. In the last conference held in 2019, over 1,500 coaches attended, including those from public schools in partnership with DepEd. Speakers at that year's conference included Metta World Peace, Baldwin, and Rob Beveridge. Another convention was scheduled for 2020, but was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was revived in March 2024 in partnership with the SBP Coaches' Academy.
