Business Description and Basis Of Presentation [Text Block] | UNITED STATES BASKETBALL LEAGUE, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2019 (Unaudited) 3. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation United States Basketball League, Inc. (“USBL”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 29, 1984 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Meisenheimer Capital, Inc. (“MCI”) for the purpose of developing and managing a professional basketball league, the United States Basketball League (the “League”). Since the inception of the League, USBL has primarily engaged in selling franchises and managing the League. From 1985 and up to the present time, USBL has sold a total of approximately forty active franchises (teams), a vast majority of which were terminated for non-payment of their respective franchise obligations. The seasons from 2008 through 2019, inclusive, have been cancelled. At the present time, USBL does not have any definitive plans as to the scheduling of a new season. USBL is currently in the process of exploring certain strategic alternatives, including the possible sale of the League. On October 30, 2014, USBL dissolved its wholly-owned subsidiary, Meisenheimer Capital Real Estate Holdings, Inc. (“MCREH”). MCREH owned a commercial building in Milford, Connecticut until the sale of the property on June 19, 2014. At May 31, 2019, USBL had negative working capital of $2,375,100 and accumulated losses of $5,059,083. These factors, as well as the Company’s reliance on related parties (see Notes 3, 4, and 6), raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is making efforts to raise equity capital, revitalize the league and market new franchises. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they may not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation. Operating results for the three-month period ended May 31, 2019 may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 29, 2020. The notes to the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the financial statements contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2019. |

Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Fair value disclosures – Cash and cash equivalents – Revenue recognition – Income taxes As of February 28, 2019, USBL had a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $3,000,000 available to offset future taxable income. The carryforward expires in varying amounts from 2020 to 2039. Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. USBL files Federal and Connecticut income tax returns using a December 31 fiscal year. The last returns filed were for the year ended December 31, 2015. Estimates Stock-based compensation .” No stock options were granted for the periods presented and none are outstanding at May 31, 2019. Earnings (loss) per common share – ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”, establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings (loss) per share (EPS). ASC 260 requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or convertible securities were exercised or converted into common stock. The Company did not include the 1,105,679 shares of convertible preferred stock in its calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended May 31, 2019 and 2018 as the result would have been antidilutive.
