Coaches,
Good evening, I hope your weekend has been blessed. I believe everyone has been checking the schedule. There have been very few to no changes made, however, PLEASE click here to ensure your game times for tomorrow. Games will be played at the SHAC (35 Cavalier Blvd, Florence, KY). Most divisions will have one pool play game then jump directly into bracket play. However, the 3/4 boys will start right off in bracket play.
If you have questions prior to or during the event, please be certain to reach out to Sara at 513-578-5703 (text preferred) or via email at spiepho13@gmail.com.
We look forward to seeing everyone on the court tomorrow.
