The Baby Dalupan Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Coach of the Year Award is an annual Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) award given since the 1993 PBA season. The winner receives the Baby Dalupan Trophy, which is named since 1995 in honor of Dalupan, who won 15 championships in the PBA and led the Crispa Redmanizers to win its first Grand Slam in 1976. Unlike the traditional player awards, which is given by the league, this citation is awarded by the PBA Press Corps.
Since its inception, the award has been given to 13 different coaches. Chot Reyes of TNT Tropang 5G will be receiving his record-extending seventh Coach of the Year award from the PBA Press Corps (PBAPC).
