LADERA RANCH – The third Boys California Live basketball tournament gets underway early Friday morning, with games set to be played at the Ladera Sports Center and near-by San Juan Hills and Tesoro high schools.
Although the event – at which the bulk of the better high school programs in California gather, represented by their projected rosters for the following season – began two years ago and was held at multiple Orange County sites, this is just the second times it’s been in SoCal.
The California Interscholastic Association (CIF) decreed that the “host” of the event alternate each June.
The Northern Section is hosting the girls side of the event this summer after the boys played in Sacramento county a year ago.
Ten brackets of 16 teams apiece will compete for championships this weekend, nine of them hosted in the San Juan Hills main gym on Sunday, beginning at 8:30 a.m. (BallerTV bracket) and concluding when the teams in the Destination Irvine bracket tip a 6:30 in the evening.
The 10th bracket title will be decided at 4 p.m. in the Ladera Sports Center (on court 4) when the NHSBCA bracket finalists hook up.
Potential “North vs. South” Open and D-I championship previews could take place in the Kangaroo Division, where Notre Dame of Sherman Oaks and Salesian of Richmond sit atop each end of the bracket.
The ND Knights (74-61/Santa Margarita) and Salesian Pride (63-55/The Villages of Florida) won their respective 16-team brackets in the Mesa, AZ-based Section 7 last weekend.
As the case with that event, the Cali Live is certified by the NCAA which allows the organization’s Division I-affiliated programs’ coaches to attend the games in person to evaluate potential recruits.
That bracket could be subtitled “Club 3,368”.
Those are the combined varsity wins for winningest boys basketball coaches in California history, via Gary McKnight of Mater Dei (1,294), Mike LeDuc of Damien (1,095) and Harvey Kitani of Rolling Hills Prep (979).
Each of their teams are among are in the bracket with Notre Dame and Salesian.
Should Mater Dei (2:45 p.m, San Diego St. Augustine) and Damien (4, St. Mary’s of Albany) win their Friday afternoon games on Court 4 of the LSC, they would hook up at 8 o’clock Friday night on Court 7.
If they were both to lose, Mater Dei-Damien clash would still take place, in the losers’ side on the bracket, at 7:45 on Court 6.
Notre Dame Coach Matt Sargeant’s Knights – led by junior guard NaVorro Bowman, Jr. and senior forward Zachary White (who crushed opponents in Mesa) – open with Long Beach Poly (6:30, Court 4), with the RHP-Phoenix Brophy Prep tilt just below in the bracket also tipping at 6:30 but on Court 6.
Salesian faces San Fernando Valley-based program Heritage Christian of Northridge (in the CIF Open last season), on Court 6 at 9 p.m.
Nine of the 10 CIF Southern Section programs that played in the 2025 Open Division playoffs are sprinkled across the top four brackets, with just Sierra Canyon (which won a bracket in Mesa last weekend) declining the opportunity to participate in the event.
Joining Notre Dame and Heritage Christian among the nine are:
St. John Bosco (which opens with San Diego Cathedral Catholic at 7:45 Friday night at San Juan Hills) sits atop the Aussie Basketball Travelers Bracket.
All-CIF SS forward Christian Collins (pictured), who didn’t play in Mesa last weekend after being one of the final USABB 19U team cuts, is expected to be with the Braves in Orange County.
*Harvard-Westlake (vs. St. Bernard, 6:30 p.m., SJH); defending CIF SS and State Open champion Roosevelt (vs. Carmichael Jesuit, 5:15 p.m., LSC, Court 4); and Santa Margarita (vs. Bakersfield Christian, 12:15, SJH) rep the CIF SS Open clubs in the OCYF Bracket.
Also in the field, in the lower half of the bracket, is Goodyear (AZ) Millennium (vs. Etiwanda, 3 p.m., LSC, Court 5) – which won one of the strongest Section 7 brackets last week behind the powerhouse trio of Cam Holmes, Adan Diggs and D.J. Spencer.
*Redondo Union (vs. San Diego Olympian, 8 p.m., LSC, Court 5); La Mirada (vs. San Jose Archbishop Mitty, 5:30, LSC, Court 5); and JSerra (vs. Riverside Poly, 4, SJH) are in the Grip Spritz Bracket.
And Centennial of Corona (vs. Fairmont Prep, 2:45, SJH; also in the Grip Spritz Bracket) – led by guard Isaiah Rogers – has played like it’s got the goods to return to the Open Division next spring.
There are also more than a dozen teams from Arizona and Nevada participating.
Daily admission is $10 with parking $20.

A buddy of mine who’s crazy about online gambling.
He’s moved to Illinois now, but his mom is originally from a small Russian town. He’s dating a guy and they both play together online.
What’s funny is he’s really into Putin — says he thinks girly guys are “supposed” to
like him. Not sure I get it, but hey, people are weird like
that. One thing’s for sure — he’s got some serious luck when it comes to online
casinos!
