What are coaches saying?

"Thanks for including us in the Justin Sharp Shootout. It was the best organized and most efficiently run tournament on our summer schedule. The team jerseys in school colors were a very nice added touch.

With the numerous college coaches in attendance, some kids got more exposure than at any time all summer. Thanks for going to the extra work to get NCAA certification. The officiating camp run in conjunction with the tournament and the rules of play made for realistic game situations.

Your volunteers should be commended for all of their hard work and courtesy given to the visiting schools. The word has already gone out that your shootout is one of the premier events of the summer."
