WBCA stands with Asian-American and Pacific Islander coaches and student-athletes

ATLANTA (May 1, 2021) – The Women’s Basketball Coaches Association marks this first day of Asian-American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month by recognizing and affirming our support for the AAPI coaches and student-athletes in our sport. Sadly, over the past year, we have seen an increase in hate crimes and racism against the Asian-American and Pacific Islander community. The WBCA does not condone hate or racism in any form, and encourages everyone, including coaches and student-athletes alike to use their public platforms to oppose hate and fight racism, not just today, or this month, but each and every day.
