The 2026 amateur basketball season in Dominica is hitting its stride, as the Dominica Amateur Basketball Association (DABA) finalizes preparations for the highly anticipated second week of action, set to unfold at the Massacre Indoor Sports Complex between April 29 and May 2. Coming off a thrilling, high-energy opening week that drew crowds of passionate local hoops fans, this upcoming slate of games is set to deliver another series of hard-fought, intense matchups as squads across the league work to build early momentum, claim bragging rights, and lock in favorable positions in the season rankings.
The full four-night schedule kicks off on the evening of Wednesday, April 29. First onto the court at 7:00 PM will be the West Coast Ballers, who will go head-to-head with the Paix Bouche Snipers. The night’s second contest will tip off at 9:00 PM, pitting Happi 767 SC Dominators against the Prowlers. Thursday’s lineup brings two more competitive matchups: at 7:00 PM, Convenience Plus Mahaut Gators will face off with Perky’s Pizza 767 SC Young Ballers, and the 9:00 PM nightcap will see Marigot Sunrise clash with BAA Sharks.
Action continues on Friday, May 1, when Denise Charles Seahawks take on D-Treads Blazers 2 at 7:00 PM, followed by a 9:00 PM battle between Dr. Darroux PSC Falcons 1 and the Police Sports Club. The week of play wraps up on Saturday, May 2, with Paix Bouche Snipers returning to the court to challenge Dr. Darroux PSC Falcons 2 at 7:00 PM, and D-Treads Blazers 1 closing out the schedule with a 9:00 PM showdown against Prowlers. All matchups across the week will follow the set schedule of 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM tip-offs, making it easy for fans to plan to attend every game they want to see.
Week 2 stands out as a critical juncture early in the season, featuring key matchups between established league contenders and up-and-coming rising squads. For teams that stumbled out of the gate in opening week, these games offer a critical chance to rebound and get their season back on track. For squads that notched opening week wins, the focus will be on holding their form and extending their early success. Even this early in the regular season, playoff positioning is already starting to take shape, meaning every contest carries increased weight, and every win could end up being a decisive factor when the playoff bracket is finalized later in the season.
Beyond on-court competition, DABA has long centered community engagement as a core part of its mission, and the organization is calling on basketball fans, local families, and community members across Dominica to turn out to the Massacre Indoor Sports Complex, cheer on their favorite local squads, and experience the electric atmosphere of amateur hoops firsthand. As the 2026 season moves forward, the stakes climb with each passing week, and every matchup grows more important in shaping the final playoff landscape for the league.
