HIJH 6th Grade Basketball
January 5, 2020
Break
Thanks to everyone for their dedication to the program during break by showing up to the open gym times or coming to the scrimmage versus the IGB travel team. I am excited to get back at it this week but only wished that we had more time together. This has been a fun season.
Tourney on Saturday
I have had some questions about the tourney at Riverside on Saturday. Here is what I know so far:
- We will play two games. If we win our first game, we will play the championship game approximately 30 minutes after the first game. Likewise if we lose, we will play in the consolation game approximately 30 minutes after the first game.
- I do not know our opponent yet. There are only 4 teams in the tournament: HIJH, Riverside, Fall Creek, and Sand Creek.
- I will have the boys come to HIJH at 7:45 am to ride a bus to Riverside. First game starts at 9. When we come back to HIJH after the tourney, we will empty out our lockers, return locks, take home items. Please be aware that this will take slightly longer than our usual returns from away games.
- This is an "A" game only tourney. Saying this however, all of our boys will dress for the tournament.
- I will try my best to allow every player a chance to play on Saturday in one, if not both, games.
- I'm sure I'm forgetting something so if you have a question that I have not addressed, feel free to email me.
