- A - AAA Varsity Boys and A - AAA Varsity Girls games will both begin at 12:00 pm and be run simultaneously on Courts 2 and 3.
- All-Star Games will be played using a "Target Score" system where the game clock will be stopped and remain off at the first interruption (violation, foul, score) with less than 4 minutes remaining in the 4th quarter. A Target Score of the leading team's points scored so far, PLUS 9 points, will be determined with the winning team being the first to reach the Target Score (i.e., the Game score at 4 min stoppage is 80-75, the Target Score will be 89 points).
- Three independent "All-Manitoba Teams" for boys and girls at each level instead of the combined "A, AA, AAA" grouping to join the "AAAA All-Manitoba Team."
- The Basketball Manitoba Awards will take place from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm at Alloway Hall, which is located in the Manitoba Museum (across the street from Sport Manitoba).
Basketball Manitoba is also seeking interest from the base of active high school basketball coaches in Manitoba to help serve on its Selection and Planning Committee. If interested, please contact Adam Wedlake at adam@basketballmanitoba.ca.
