Let no one look down
on your youthfulness,

show yourself an example

SJV BASKETBALL TOURNAMENTS

SJV typically hosts a total of three basketball tournaments (6th, 7th, and 8th grade). Since tournaments are the main fundraiser for the SJV Athletic Program and every athlete benefits from the money rasied, all families from the respective grade are required to help with concession duty and clean-up, even if their team is not particpating in the tournament. Team managers coordinate your involvement. Mark your calendar! You are required to participate.


TENTATIVE SJV TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE
6th Grade Boys & Girls  December 1 – December 6, 2009
8th Grade Boys & Girls  January 19 – January 24, 2010
7th Grade Boys & Girls   February 9 – February 14, 2010


MANDATORY CONCESSION DUTY
Families, excluding only the head basketball coach, are required to do concession duty a minimum of one time during regular basketball season. This may increase due to need. As mentioned above, families are assigned to work concessions during their grade’s SJV tournament, regardless of whether or not their team is participating. Your help and cooperation are greatly appreciated!  Failure to meet your assigned concession duty may result in the child's suspension from the next game.  Please refer to the athletic manual for clarification.
