Welcome to the American-Canadian Basketball Association (A-C BA). Set in 1965, this league really brings something new to the sport of basketball consisting of six teams from the United States, but also six teams from North of the border in Canada. The league is split up into the American Division and the Canadian Division, with the six US teams in the American, and the six Canadian teams in the Canadian. 
The top two teams in each division will qualify for the playoffs, where the winners of each division meet up in the final. The first series will be a best of 5 series, while the A-C BA Finals will be a best of 7 series. The Canadian Division Champion will receive the Pearson Cup, while the American Division Champion will receive the Johnson Cup. The Champion of the A-C BA Finals will receive the 49th Parallel Trophy.
The Pearson Cup derives its name from the Prime Minister of Canada at the time, Lester B. Pearson. So is the same for the Johnson Cup, deriving its name from US President, Lyndon B. Johnson. These two trophies will be traveling year by year with the champion of their respective division. The 49th Parallel trophy derives its name from the straight-line border from the Northwest Angle to Washington which divides the United States and Canada. The 49th Parallel Trophy will be new every year and will not be traveling along with the champion. 
 
 Two teams will be revealed alphabetically every day until all 12 are revealed. Teams as of right now have the same uniform design, as the league is just beginning. Later on, changes will be made to make the teams look more unique. Once all teams are revealed, then the inaugural season of the A-C BA begins. The simulation will be done the same way Section30 does for his MAHL, using a random generator. 

And I must give credit where credit is due. Shout out to Steelman, Section 30, and ItDoesntMatter for inspiration and/or help working out the logistics of the league. And I could not do this whole project alone so I have been gifted the talents of JamHeronArk who will be responsible for all write-ups after this one, along with designing the identities of two of our teams. I can’t wait to get this league going, and I hope we can all have a good time here.
