Activity Overview
Friday, August 26

Players and guests who have pre-registered to play both days in the tournament report to the gym between 4:00 and 5:00pm.

YAS staff conduct a review of tournament minor rule modifications. Nothing difficult.

Players warm up and familiarize themselves with the gym, courts and Wilson NCAA basketballs supplied by YAS.

Based on their previous assessment of registered YAS graduates, YAS staff members appoint a captain and co-captain for each team.

A player draft will then be held in order to increase each team’s starting roster to 4, 5 or 6.

Each team will then play two exhibition games with individual and team mentoring by staff.

YAS staff will make any transfers and roster modifications in order maintain relatively equal strength between teams.

Each team then plays one more exhibition game that evening.

Saturday, August 27

Players who played in Friday evening’s exhibition games report back to the gym between 9:00 and 9:30am.

Players who have pre-registered to play only on Saturday or who wish to register at the last minute to play only on Saturday (space permitting) report at 9:00 am.

YAS staff may make additional roster modifications in order maintain relatively equal strength between teams.

Then, the real IRONMAN tournament starts: 4 on 4 or 3 on 3 NCAA front court games. No more transfers or roster changes.

Every player will be needed and will play equally in three more games, each with at least 2/3 floor time in each game.

The tournament will conclude with a brief Wrap-Up Ceremony starting at 5:40 pm.
