The 1030 NCAA basketball tournaments, now known as the NCAA Season 7 basketball tournaments are the basketball tournaments of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (Philippines) (NCAA) for its 1930–31 season. Two tournaments were held, the men's tournament for male collegiate players, and the midgets' tournament, for male high school students.

The University of Santo Tomas won the men's tournament, their first, and to date, only NCAA title. Colegio de San Juan de Letran won their third consecutive midgets' championship

Beginning on the September 30 gameday, the games were held at Nozaleda Park (modern-day Rizal Park). Prior games were held at the 31st Infantry Armory.^[1] The last game of the championship round was held at the Philippine Columbian Association.^[2]

Men's tournament

Qualifying round

UST, Ateneo and NU qualified to the championship round outright. UP and Letran were tied in the standings and held a one-game playoff to determine the final qualifier. UP won 35–28.^[4]

Championship round

In the penultimate game that would have decided the championship, UST defeated Ateneo 55–53 in overtime. Ateneo led after the end of regulation 47–46, and Ateneo players celebrated; a retabulation saw the game tied at 47–all. Both captains decided to play an extra five minutes to decide the winner, however, one of the referees, Lt. Bowen, had already left. Lou Salvador officiated the overtime by his lonesome, and Ateneo put the game under protest, arguing that in a championship game, there should at least be two referees.^[5] UST's Father Sancho told the NCAA board that there were instances that games were handled by only one referee; Ateneo's Father Hurley argued that this should only happen with the consent of both captains, with Huxley saying that they agreed to the overtime as there would have been a fight in the venue if they decided otherwise. It was then decided to bring the matter to a neutral body to be chaired by Regino Ylanan.^[6] Ylanan chose Victor Buencamino and SIlvestre Torres as members of this neutral board; if UST lost the protest, they would ask to make the championship decided on a best-of-three series.^[7]

After three meetings, the body decided to dismiss Ateneo's protest. While the committee's letter of the decision was curt, if was inferred that they took into account that it was not UST's fault that Lt. Bowen left after thinking that the game was over. Father Hurley accepted the decision of the body.^[8] UST formalized the championship with a win against UP, finishing the season undefeated.^[2]
