Good evening,

Thanks for coming out to play the Heart of Texas Fall Finale on October 25th. If you haven't already downloaded the TXBA app, it is the most efficient way to get all schedule updates and event messages.

You can find the schedule on the TXBA app and here:

Take note of the sportsmanship rules and serious consequences for any type of violence. Physical and/or verbal violence will result in a full team disqualification from the event without any refunds for spectators or the team. Additionally, any form of violence, including threats, could result in the team being banned from future TXBA events. If a parent enters the courts without prior permission from the officials, the game will be suspended at the point of interrruption. No adult should make physical contact with someone else's child without permission. Help us keep this a safe event for everyone.

Please communicate with parents that gyms will not open earlier than 7:30am, so please don't arrive earlier.All standings are decided by win/loss record, head to head, and point differential of opponents in a tie. Site Directors will hand out medals for 1st and 2nd after all games in the division are finished and the standings have updated online.

Please know I tried my absolute best to accommodate all schedule requests entered when registering. It will not be possible for me to change the schedule for late requests. Also, players must be approved in advance to play on multiple teams in the event. Rules are attached and posted under messages for the event. Please make every effort to keep this a fair and positive environment for the kids to enjoy the sport they love.

Thank you!
