General
1. Please provide an alternative kit to cope with a colour clash.
2. Defence is man to man only. Do not go full court if leading by 20 points or more.
3. Bring 10 - 12 players. There is no ‘all must play’ restriction but please try to give reasonable exposure to all players within your squad.
4. All players and staff are expected to maintain the highest standards of sportsmanship to all participants in the tournament.
5. We cannot extend the court time allocation so please be punctual (or early!) for the start of all your games.
6. Simon Fisher is organising the tournament and we would appreciate team lists sent by Weds, September 27th.
7. Players should provide their own food and drink although there is a cafeteria facility at the sports centre.
8. For travel directions go to: EB National League Handbook – Black Country University of Wolverhampton .
9. There will be an announcement of a national squad selection immediately following the final game. Head Coaches are asked to liaise with Rick Wooldridge (who is responsible for this age group until September 2007) during the tournament re selection.
At the annual Area Performance Centre tournament at the University of Wolverhampton on Oct 1st, six Yorkshire players represented the North of England, George Colwill (Doncaster Danum Eagles), Steve Lokwa, James Chester, Adam Ronson, Devon van Oostrum (all TeamSpirit Sheffield Junior Sharks); Alex Knight is still recovering from injury.
Since the tournament is mainly used as an individual selection tournament, the match results are not a priority. With official scoring in doubt for one of the games, the tournament finished in a three-way tie, with the Southwest, Midlands, and North 1 all finishing with a 3-1 record. The North Two finished 0-4 with some very close finishes.
From the North, five players were selected to the England 1992 training camps: Kyro Brooks (Manchester Magic), Sam Craige (Ellesmere Port Panthers), Aaron Gerami-Poor (Manchester Magic), Matthew Clarke (Preston Pride), and Yorkshire's own Devon van Oostrum (TeamSpirit Sheffield Junior Sharks). As 1993 borns, Devon and Alex Knight will also represent Yorkshire at the annual regional tournament in Lilleshall, October 28 and 29.
