Integration

Are simulations available for this API?

Yes! You can replay past games as though they were live using our on-demand Simulations service.

What format are date fields presented in?

Date values are presented in the ISO 8601 standard format.

Timestamp fields are in UTC. These could include scheduled start times or play-by-play event timestamps. Examples: scheduled="2024-02-11T23:30:00+00:00", created_at="2024-02-11T23:43:20+00:00"

Date-only fields reflect local league convention and are not UTC-adjusted. These could include season start dates and birth dates. Examples: start_date="2024-08-16", date_of_birth="1984-09-22"

How do I locate the TTL (Time to Live)/cache on an API endpoint?

The cache (in seconds) can be accessed in the returned header information on each RESTful API call, under cache-control.

ex. cache-control: max-age=1, public, s-maxage=1 or cache-control: public, must-revalidate, max-age=120

The TTL may adjust when an event is live for some game-centric endpoints. This information is available for each endpoint on our developer portal.

Data Workflow

How can I find timings for data entry updates?

Our NCAAMB Data Entry Workflow section covers data availability updates. This includes updates for poll rankings, coverage levels, stat validation, and more.

Game Statuses

What game statuses can I expect to see and what are their definitions?

scheduled - The game is scheduled to occur.
created – The game has been created and we have begun logging information.
inprogress – The game is in progress.
halftime - The game is currently at halftime.
complete – The game is over, but stat validation is not complete.
closed – The game is over and the stats have been validated.
cancelled – The game has been cancelled. No makeup game will be played as a result.
delayed – The start of the game is currently delayed or the game has gone from in progress to delayed for some reason.
postponed – The game has been postponed, to be made up at another day and time. Once the makeup game is announced, a new game and ID will be created and scheduled on the announced makeup date.
time-tbd – The game has been scheduled, but a time has yet to be announced.
if-necessary – The game will be scheduled if it is required.
unnecessary – The series game was scheduled to occur, but will not take place due to one team clinching the series early.
forfeited – The game has been forfeited by one of the scheduled teams and is considered complete.

How do you handle forfeit games?

We mark a forfeit game with a status of forfeited and the winning team marked with forfeit_winner="true". See our Forfeit workflow for more info.

Player Statuses

What player statuses can I expect to see?

ACT – The player is on the team’s active roster
NWT – The player is no longer with the team

What are the player experience values I can expect to see in the feeds?

FR – Freshman
SO – Sophomore
JR – Junior
SR – Senior
GR – Graduate Student

Schedules

How do I pull in schedule data for future games in which teams are not yet known?

This API features a TBD team used for every entry in to-be-determined matchups. This virtual team will have its own unique ID specific to this API.

Find the TBD team in the Teams endpoint.

<team id="907dc4e5-6957-4d19-b7d4-b1b7003b91e6" name="TBD" alias="TBD" market="Team"/>

The matchups will appear as below in the Schedule endpoints.

Court Dimensions

What is the scale of the X Y coordinates?

The court we use is 1128 by 600. The scale is in inches.

What x/y vertices define action areas in the x/y coordinate graph?

A list of areas is included below. Note that these vertices are for the left side of the court. For the right side, we use the following calculation, where length=1128 and width=600:

right-court-point = (length - x, width - y)
left_basket=[63, 300]
right_basket=[1065, 300]

Why does the `team_basket` attribution in the Play-by-Play endpoint not match the basket orientation (left vs. right) in the broadcast or game tracking?

Our team_basket attribution is set to match the orientation of the local television broadcast, which is on the opposite side of the scorer's table. The team_basket attribution may not match the orientation used by the particular broadcast or game tracker that you are viewing.

If you want to provide a perspective from the scorer's table, you will have to map the coordinates so that the coordinates attributed to left side of the court are attributed to the right side of the court on your end (and vice versa).

Neutral Site Games

How are home/away team designations determined for neutral site games, and are those designations consistent across Sportradar products?

In the NCAAMB API there are no "official" home/away designations for neutral site games. For neutral site games we set the neutral site value to true.

<game id="4f16ff1b-4b9e-4aea-918e-46fd6c129964" status="scheduled" coverage="full" scheduled="2020-12-21T03:00:00Z" 
  neutral_site="true" conference_game="true" home_team="e52c9644-717a-46f4-bf16-aeca000b3b44" away_team="9fccbf28-2858-4263-821c-fdefb3c7efa3">
   <time_zones venue="US/Pacific" home="US/Pacific" away="US/Mountain" />
   <venue id="8880a26a-485d-424f-a53f-bedae94b36ba" name="T-Mobile Arena" capacity="18000" address="3780 South Las Vegas Boulevard" 
    city="Paradise" state="NV" zip="89158" country="USA" />
   <home name="Washington Huskies" alias="WASH" id="e52c9644-717a-46f4-bf16-aeca000b3b44" />
   <away name="Colorado Buffaloes" alias="COLO" id="9fccbf28-2858-4263-821c-fdefb3c7efa3" />
   <broadcasts>
      <broadcast network="Pac-12 Network" type="TV" />
   </broadcasts>
</game>

The above sample game will count towards Washington's and Colorado's neutral site record and not their respective home and away records.

In the NCAAMB API, we use the home/away team designations when we initially publish the schedules. We will not change the home/away designations after the schedule is initially published. This does not apply to games that have been changed from a neutral site game to a traditional home/away game. We may change home/away team designations in these cases.

Other Sportradar products may publish schedules at different times and use different fixture management workflows. They may (for neutral-site games) display different home/away team designations.

Scoring

When are scores added to the schedule feeds?

Final scores are added to the schedule feeds when the game status changes to complete.

Stat Definitions

How do you define a team rebound?

A team rebound is recorded when no individual player is credited with a rebound following a missed field goal or free throw, but the team gains or is awarded possession of the ball.

Typical scenarios include:

The ball goes out of bounds after a missed shot without any player securing control
Possession is awarded after certain violations (e.g., lane violations, loose-ball fouls)
Simultaneous recovery situations where no single player can be identified as controlling the rebound

Every missed shot must result in either a player rebound or a team rebound to maintain statistical balance.

What formulas are used to calculate efficiency and efficiency game score?

Here are the formulas we use:

Efficiency: (Points + Rebounds + Assists + Steals + Blocks − Missed Field Goal Attempts − Missed Free Throw Attempts - Turnovers)

Efficiency Game Score: (Points) + (0.4_Field Goals Made) - (0.7_Field Goals Attempted) - (0.4_Free Throws Missed) + (0.7_Offensive Rebounds) + (0.3_Defensive Rebounds) + (Steals) + (0.7_Assists) + (0.7_Blocks) – (0.4_Personal Fouls) – (Turnovers)

Note: For this team efficiency calculations, statistics attributed to the team rather than a player are not counted (i.e. team rebounds, team turnovers, team fouls, etc.).
