Martin Methodist Fall League

[onpoint]

Does anyone know about this league? It is advertised as the top 80 players for Middle Tennesee and Northern

Alabama?

It is not necessarily the "Top 80" because many of the top-80 players would be Division I players that have already committed that might not find it helpful to participate since they already know where they are going to college. Though the league will not just be about recruiting. It is also good for playing with and against good competition that might be outside of your normal district or region. The league will be limited to only 80 players. This is the first year of having this. The idea came from a successful league over in East Tennessee that Don Brown and the Knoxville Lady Panthers put on last year. They had 80 kids and it was very competitive and very good for recruiters. It has only been the last week that it has been advertised. When a student registers, they must list some of their accomplishments and why they should be chosen for the event. We want to make sure that the players in the league are of a high caliber. To register or for more information, you can go to www.HoopsPlus.org/Fall_League.html or call Coach Bechler at 931-363-9829. Hope this helps.

Just wanted to comment how impressive and professional this event has turned out to be. It has been a class act from first contact to the games starting today.

Very happy to see a league like this in our area.

Congrats to Coach Bechler and his girls for supplying such a great venue for young ladies to play.

Exciting Games ALL DAY while it lasted! Twas a pleasure indeed!~

Were there many scouts there on Saturday???

How was was the camp yesterday? Who were some of the top athletes?

These 5 weekend games were money and time well spent. Scouts were only there a couple of games but my daughters playing time and the way things were run made it worth it for her. Good officials as a whole and good organization. The competition was up to par and most all the games were close and competitive. We will most likely do it again next fall with both girls instead of one. Thanks Coach Bechler.
