Tournament organizer, Sam Joyner said the purpose of the program is to assist in the mission of developing student athletes into future leaders through the basketball program.
The athletic program teaches some of life’s most important lessons to our students: sportsmanship, dedication, teamwork, respect for others, and respect for themselves.
Joyner thanks you the parents, the PTA, the participating schools, score keepers, referees, and all who contribute to making our interscholastic program a success.
