The 2025-26 GHSA Boys Basketball season is here after a busy offseason which saw sweeping changes voted on and passed as a 1-32 playoff seeding was approved for next year’s reclassification cycle with Class 7A set to return as well. The GHSA also passed a new, “stricter” transfer rule that went into effect August 1. It remains to be seen if movement will ever be hindered as 223 transfers and counting have been reported as schools rushed to turn in their old Form Bs before the new policy went into effect.

High school basketball is officially back as the 2025-26 GHSA season is right around the corner. Region realignment will come back into play next year meaning title run windows could be closing on some teams while on the horizon of opening for others.
