I'm much better with email than message board updates. Let me know if you need anything that wasn't included in the email I sent.

Purdue University + coach 4. Beacon Academy (possibly + coach) 5. University School of Milwaukee + coach 6. Returning te...

100% on, Saturday January 4th at HF, dealing with the Kickoff at the moment (76 teams at one tournament!) but hoping to post on it next week.

I have heard this tournament has been cancelled. Can we get a confirmation one way or the other, with either a field update, or a post confirming it was cancelled?

Thank you!

Field list has been emailed to everyone I have email addresses for (at least one team member has gotten the email).

Currently 13 teams with reserved spots.

Attached is the flyer I'm sending out to people. Again, to clarify, this is an "open" tournament.

Please let me know if there's any questions.

Brief update on HF's Kickoff (stats coming, SQBS is a nasty nightmare even before unusual computer errors). 1st HF, 2nd Naperville Central, 3rd Metea Valley, 4th Latin, 5th Sandburg ... but my goodness, that order does not match up with statistics. Metea and Latin dominated things statistically, but...

I had tried emailing the email address listed, and received no response. Is this tournament still running, and if so, is it running as a Novice or Regular? Thanks!

Has there been any discussion whether there will be a September 2016 tournament run by Hinsdale?

We're coming either way, but could I find out if this will be 4 on 4, or if it will be 5 on 5?

Homewood-Flossmoor is considering coming; I need to confirm with my top 4 players that at least 3 of them can attend, but if so, we'll be there. Just one team.

James Garcia (Champaign Centennial coach) also heard from someone running the tournament. I'd assume it's on (with a little trepidation at the lack of contact). HF is still coming with 1 team and 1 buzzer system.

Homewood-Flossmoor is interested in attending (with just one team this year). We will be bringing one buzzer system.
