Maine Hoops March Mayhem II - Travel Team Special

Good Evening,

We’re getting closer to an exciting weekend of basketball, and the 2nd Draft Schedule for March Mayhem II is now complete!

There were some changes from yesterday, so please take a moment to check your schedule again to make sure you have the most up-to-date information. While I do not anticipate many additional changes, we will send out the Final Schedule tomorrow evening, which will include all the key details you’ll need for the event. As always your best option is to download the Maine Hoops Exposure Basketball App.

🏆 Sunday Bracket Play & Championship Shirts
As mentioned in last night’s email, Sunday will feature Bracket Play for many teams. All teams competing in bracket games will be playing for Championship T-Shirts, so there will definitely be something on the line!

For those who may need a quick refresher, here’s how the brackets work.

Bracketology (How to Read the Brackets)
This event uses a championship bracket format, meaning teams advance based on game results.

Within each bracket you will see:

• Game Numbers – These identify the specific game in the bracket.
• Outcome Placeholders – These show how teams advance.

Examples:
• W1 = Winner of Game 1 moves to that spot
• L1 = Loser of Game 1 moves to that spot
• W2 = Winner of Game 2 advances

Once scores are reported, the brackets will automatically update, showing where teams move next.

This is why we strongly encourage everyone to download the Maine Hoops Exposure Basketball App, where bracket updates and scores will appear almost immediately after they are entered.

🏀 Championship Opportunity for Non-Bracket Teams
If your team is playing both days but is not placed in a Sunday bracket, there is still a championship opportunity.

Teams that finish the weekend 4–0 will also receive Championship T-Shirts.

📱 Where to Find Your Brackets
You can view all brackets in two places:

• On the Maine Hoops Exposure App
• At the bottom of the schedule page on the schedule link provided

While some teams will not know their exact Sunday game time yet, you will be able to see potential matchups and locations based on how the brackets play out.

🔁 Consolation Games
Many teams who do not qualify for Sunday bracket play will still receive Consolation Games, and in some cases two games, particularly to ensure our Sunday one-day teams get the games they traveled for.

One important note:
Please do not skip consolation games.

Nothing is more frustrating for teams than arriving ready to play and discovering their opponent has decided not to show. Tournament basketball is built on commitment and sportsmanship, and we appreciate everyone honoring their scheduled games.

If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

📅 Final schedules will be released Thursday evening, so please keep an eye on your email and the app for the latest updates.

We’re looking forward to a great weekend of hoops at March Mayhem II!

Good Evening

This is the first in a series of emails we will be sending out about the event. This Weekend's Schedule is complete. You will see the link below.Please realize we have many teams with Bracket Play on Sunday, I cannot "fix" the schedules for you. I do my best to separate grade levels, but I can't be 100%.

I will send more information out tomorrow about reading your Brackets for Sunday, I know most of you know the deal by now. The easiest way to find the Brackets is through using the Maine Hoops Exposure Basketball App.

We do use a schedule that does include Back to Back Games (easily what I loved when coaching) so that you are not waiting around all day to get your games played. If you have an issue with it let me know and I can usually make some easy changes.

I will do a follow up tomorrow with any changes and a final schedule on Thursday.

Here is the link to the schedule and as always you can (and should tell your parents to do the same) download the Maine Hoops Exposure Basketball App for the weekend. I would also forward the emails I send out so they stay informed. Finally, this year I will be sending out messages through the App as well as through email, this way your parents will also see these messages by checking there.
