Men’s and women’s basketball are returning to Yavapai College. The programs are reinstated and will return to competition in the 2022-2023 season. They will return to the Arizona Community College Athletic Association, which is the conference they played in until the programs were discontinued in 2011. Vice President of Community Relations & Student Development Rodney Jenkins says, “we plan to create an atmosphere that is both fun and family-friendly, making YC a great destination for local family fun. Both men’s and women’s basketball are rooted in the history of this institution, and we are all excited to welcome back the game, our alumni, and community to help us grow our programs.” Coaching searches for both programs will begin immediately.
