In a move almost certain to be a lightning rod for debate in the already contentious world of club basketball, the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) announced that it will implement broader resident requirements in any of its girls' basketball events that is certified by the NCAA for viewing by college coaches.

The AAU previously restricted teams to a maximum of three players from a bordering district. A team's district is defined by the coach's residence.
