Top Tier Turkey Shoot

Description

All games will be played at the SURC (Student Union & Recreation Center) located on the Central Washington University campus. We can host up to 48 teams at the SURC and since this is a Saturday / Sunday only tournament, first games of the day may be as early as 8am and last games as late as 850pm. In the event we have over 48 teams, we will utilize either Kittitas Elementary or Morgan Middle School. Schedules will be published no later than 5pm on Tuesday the week of the tournament. The SURC hosts 4 courts in one location and on site food options. This event is a 4 game guarantee. Top Tier basketball events are designed to maximize development and competition for all teams and players. We believe development and growth happens when players are put in highly competitive situations against similar skilled opponents and like minded teams. As divisions fill up, there is a chance that we add capacities to certain age groups and eliminate others. Our goal is to keep our events smaller and maintain quality control.
