The Community Basketball Association (CBA – Pilipinas / CBA – Philippines) was a regional-based grassroots basketball tournament based in the Philippines. Founded in June 2018, the league aimed to become an avenue to scout and expose young basketball players from various places across the country.[1] The league was founded by former actor and model-turned-director and basketball enthusiast Carlo Maceda.[2]

16 teams from across Luzon area (Binangonan, Bulacan, Caloocan, Marikina, Manila, General Trias, Malabon, Nueva Ecija, Parañaque, Pasig, Rizal, (Team A & B) Quezon City, San Juan, San Mateo, Valenzuela) participated in the league's 1st Founder's Cup with San Juan Knights EXILE winning the title.[1] All games aired on IBC-13 and ZOE Broadcasting Network's Light TV.

The last tournament the league held was the Next-18 tournament, which was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
