(cost $125.00) Teams will have the option of playing two games on Thursday which will give them a 6 game gaurantee. (cost $150.00) You can contact Coach Andy Griffin at school (615) 824-6162. As of 9-27-02 we already have 24 teams that have sent in the entry form and can only except another 12 possible 16.

It is a very good tournament, but the weather always seems to be bad that weekend. Two years ago it was extremely cold and wet, last year was virtually rained out. Maybe this year will be the exception.

What time would the Thurs. games be? And are the games played at Drakes Creek?

Year in and year out regardless of weather, this is one of the top tourneys. Pools and bracket play are set up very fairly for all teams involved. I've been to a few of a southeastern city's tourneys where you knew who would win one side of the bracket before pool play even started. Andy and Chick set this up for teams to have equal opportunity to advance. Hospitality is great. We signed up early.

[HHS51]

The games on Thursday will start at 3:30-4:00 depending on the number of teams that want to play. We have about 18-20 teams that have already signed up to play on Thursday. This allows teams to have two extra games. They are matched up against a competitive team that is not in there pool.

Are they sending out sign-up sheets or is this all being done on the phone. Lewis Co. is interested in coming and we need info sent to us. We would like to play on Thursday night, also. Send info to...
