LATE CHANGES TO SCHEDULES AND CALENDARS

tournament schedules and calendars for
some of the teams, especially for the 16U
team. Please be sure to check your calendars
for late-breaking changes.
ALL PRACTICES WILL END BY WED. JUNE 2.
ATTENTION ALL AAU TEAMS

11U NH FASTBREAK TEAM WINS STATE CHAMPIONSHIP
Congratulations to the 11U team for a hard-
fought victory in the championship game
against the Spartans to win the NH State
Title today! All of their games were close
ones, but they managed to hang on and come
out on top. Great job to the team and coach.
Worth mentioning were the 14U-L team that lost
a close game in the championship against a
tough Mass/NH Rivals team. This game could
have gone either way, but the Rivals came
out on top. Congratulations on a 2nd place
finish.
Unfortunately, the 10U team could not enter
as there were no other teams to challenge them.
It’s too bad, because I’m sure they would have
won also.
MAY/JUNE CALENDARS UPDATED
The May and June calendars have been updated
with practice times and courts. MORE >>
