Entry fee $100/ team (All proceeds will go to the BHS basketball fund. This money is used to pay for summer leagues and other skill developing events throughout the year)
We will be hosting a basketball alumni tournament on Sunday May 23 at Bluffton High School.
The teams will be comprised of any graduate from Bluffton High School. It is not a requirement that you played basketball on the high school team!
In addition, to make this an enjoyable experience for all teams we will have two divisions, recreational and competitive. The competitive division will be a double elimination tournament and the recreational format will be determined at a later time, depending on team interest.
Rules:
Games consist of two 16 minute running clock halves. The clock will be stopped in the final minute of each half. In the event of a tie at the end of regulation, the first team to score in overtime will win.
If your team gets a technical the team must pay an additional $20 for each technical before the player assessed the technical can come back into the game -- if the player does not return the team still owes the $20 before they can play their next game. Regardless of the $20 rule unsportsmanlike conduct, fighting, or constant harassment of the officials will get you kicked out of the tournament immediately and for good. This is a friends/family event.
We will have the 3 point contest. Anyone is allowed to enter for a $5 fee – the 3 point contest will be held prior to the championship game (with the winner receiving a cash prize). Standard 3 point contest rules will apply. You will have 2 minutes to shoot 5 balls at 5 locations. The player with the most makes at the end will be the winner. In case of a tie the two players tied will each shoot again until one player wins.
We would like to finalize the teams by Sunday May 9 so please let me know as soon as you can.

************ NOTE ******************
Understand that confirming that you're coming to this event on Facebook does not put you on a team. You still need to make contact with other players and form a team that you submit to Coach Boblitt (as mentioned above). This event page is simply to get the word out about the tournament.
Also teams DO NOT have to be from the same graduating class. The only rule is that every player needs to have graduated from BHS.
