Good evening Coaches,


The tournament schedule will be released by 12pm.

As always, we worked extremely hard to accommodate schedule requests for all teams participating in this event. With the large number of teams entered and the high volume of requests submitted, this is a very challenging process.

We were able to honor most requests, however there were a few that we simply could not accommodate. With this many moving parts, gym availability, division formats, coaching conflicts, and scheduling limitations, it was unfortunately impossible to meet every request.

Please understand that every request was reviewed carefully and considered during the scheduling process. We truly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we work to create the best overall schedule possible for all teams involved.

Once the schedule is released, please review it carefully and notify us immediately if you notice any major issues.

🆔 NATIONAL SPORTS ID / TEAM CHECK-IN INFORMATION

Teams with all players confirmed through National Sports ID may check in at their first scheduled game.

Teams with player(s) NOT certified through National Sports ID MUST check in at the Foley Sports & Tourism Complex — NO EXCEPTIONS.

All players not certified through National Sports ID must be present at check-in and must be certified before your team’s first game in order to participate.

Thank you again for being part of this event and we look forward to a great weekend of basketball.
