Mini Belt Madness
We went to thank everyone that participated in our Fall Belt Rumble or Mini Belt Rumble lol
Congratulations to all winners this past weekend.
Due to a last minute mishap with our manufacturer, our typical big vertical hoops championships ship belts that we normally give to a Divisions champions, we had to put a rush order in to another vendor.
Unfortunately, the size of the belts we received via the new vendor were a little small…
Ok, A lot smaller than normal.
We do have the new correct belts on order and will hope for them to arrive soon.
We will coordinate with all winning coaches upon arrival.
We appreciate and value all the support from our Vertical Hoops Supporters and strive to provide the best events, products and championship awards on a weekly bases.
Coming Up Next:
This weekend :
Fall Shoot Out (New Haven Area)
October 3-5th
Fall Championships at Mohegan Sun. Grades 4th Grade boys and girls thru Varsity)
Please feel free to reach out directly to me for any issues in regard to the belts or if you are looking to place multiple teams in any of the following events.
