Add a fiberglass patch to the back side. You can get it at homedepot.

It may be counter-intuitive, but you can slow a crack's lengthening by drilling small holes at both ends of it. This works because the force spreading the crack has great leverage where there's a sharp angle, and the hole, if carefully drilled, has a smooth edge meeting the crack at right angles.
After drilling the holes, patch with epoxy on the back side and carefully fill the holes and sand flush: you don't want players complaining about wild bounces.

Fiberglass patch or 'Bondo' (an epoxy), either should do what you need.
If you need to add a little more support, you can even place a piece of wood, or metal, and apply the patch, or bondo over it, adhering it to the board.
Both types of products can be found at hardware stores, department stores, or automotive suppliers.
Have Fun

Drill a hole at both ends of the crack, this will stop the crack from lengthening.
