District 11AA

[straightbill307]

I don't know about an advantage, but it stinks that the game times aren't more conducive to actually having fans attend the games. I don't know whose decision the game times are, but there will be a huge difference in the attendance. Why in the heck would the last game of the day start at 6:30? School administrators never cease to amaze me. Their work day and everyone else's are entirely different. This one is going to hurt them in the pocketbook though. There's not much that can be done about the first 2 games, but the second 2 would have better attendance if they started an hour to an hour and a half later.

 

What's wrong with 3:30,5:00,6:30 and 8:00 start times?

Go get em' ksgovols! lol. I agree

Pretty sure the powers that be at TSSAA had something to do with the times. They had to get permission to have 4 games on Monday.

Somehow that doesn't surprise me at all redhawk1. Does T$$AA get part of the gate at district? I don't think so, but it'd be nice if they were cutting their own throats.

 

We've got 3 in county teams and Creekwood 30 minutes away for girls and boys. They aren't even saving anybody travel time. What'd Forrest Gump's mama say? "stupid is as stupid does"

TSSAA does get part of the gate.

Good! Then I won't mind as much not donating the price of admission to the tournament like a lot of the other non-parents that would consider attending the games if they were held at a reasonable time.

bump

If basketball is like other sports, the TSSAA gets 17% of the gate.

Do you know what games will be played on tuesday and wed????

[rolltide418]

I do not know how things are set up to go beyond tomorrow. With the new TSSAA rule, I am not sure if the district will be allowed to play all four games on Tuesday, or if they will have to play on Tuesday and Wednesday.

 

For the sake of the teams in the district, I hope they finish it up on Tuesday. It just allows more time to get prepared for opponents in the region tournament.

[redhawk1]

Girls consolation and championship Tuesday, boys Wednesday. I think it's a 6:00pm start.

Correct about girls Tuesday and boys Wednesday.

[K-Town Killa 11]
