5th Annual Hoops De Mayo SOLD OUT Gulf Coast Warriors Pfahl

Great Saturday. We had some blowouts, we had some tight games, we had OT, we had 40 foot buzzer beaters...

All first are at 9:25 tomorrow. Please give us til 9:00 AM to set the gyms.

Notes on 10th grade bracket:
Dream Rigby 9th and ABM 9th played up. They will go straight to a 9th grade championship game for the rings. This moved gcw Lee up to 2nd and pc magic to 3rd. Tie breaker is head to head there.

We don't do schedule requests for Sunday. Have a fun Saturday night and we will see everyone tomorrow

Hi everyone, we are in year 8 of hosting in Panama City and have never had a major incident so want to keep that tradition going and share our code of conduct for those that haven't played with us before.

1.) Zero tolerance policy. We don't allow abusive language to players, refs, or fans. We will remove you immediately and potentially remove the team if we have any issues from fans in the stands, players, or coaches. This is the greatest game on the planet, let's enjoy it together.

2;) Bench etiquette: Only 2 coaches allowed on bench. Only one can be standing. NO videography or photographers on players side. NO parents, next team, or anyone allowed behind player benches. NO stats at the table. We cover book and clock. If you want a picture of your book after the game no worries there.

3.) Security will be at all three gyms. We never need it but if anyone is removed from a venue they will also be filed with a tresspass from an officer and not allowed back. We take integrity and good sportsmanship seriously, please continue that tradition with us here in Panama City this weekend.

4.) Next game up: Please don't gather close to the benches when your waiting for your next game. Give the teams on the court the respect ot focus on their game, not who is getting ready for the next one.

We don't allow any alcohol, drug usage, abusive language, or fighting. Anyone in violation will be immediately removed, trespassed, and potentially arrested. I hate typing this sentence but as one fan said 4 years ago: "They don't play in Panama." We don't expect or tolerate any of this, but have to post.

Again, thanks for running with us. Enjoy the game, celebrate the players, and have an awesome time. We have gym operators and security in every gym. If you have any questions just grab us. Look forward to seeing all of you in Panama City this weekend.

Friendly reminder that ALL GYMS will open at 8:10 AM. Please give us time to set up and sweep the floors for ya.

Hi all, shooting for 3:30 PM CST. Had 2 teams drop for non payment and 2 teams who pulled out due to other commitments. Redoing the schedule now and should have it up at the latest by 3:30 PM CST. We will send out a message when it goes live. Thanks for your patience. Think we took care of everyone on schedule requests that were emailed by Tuesday.

It will be Thursday afternoon for this tournament on schedule posting. We will have brackets up Friday as well. Thanks to those that sent their schedule requests. We will do our best to accomodate and usually hit a home run there. As always, no requests on Sunday as we can't forecast where teams will finish. We are sold out for this one so there might be a revision if a team drops for non payment and we fill off waiting list.

Thanks for running with us. Will post rules on Thursday when we release schedule.

You don't need to supply a book or clock person. We have the table covered. Just bring warm up basketballs and home team will supply game ball.
