Players Update 5 weeks out

As Nationals quickly approaches I will be making many blog posts with important information please sign up to get notifcation when a post is made so you don't miss out. There will be a lot of information that you will need in order to make your family and team’s “Nationals Experience” complete.

1) Player Registration – Please remember all players must register individually to play at Nationals. The form is on line at www.homeschoolbasketball.com As of today we have 1450 players registered. Last year we had 2500 pre-registered. The deadline for pre-registration is Feb 15th, so please get the word out to your team it will save them money and eliminate an extra step during Nationals.
2) Team USA – if you have siblings of your team members coming to Nationals you might want to recommend to them that they play on a Team USA. This is great fun and really ads to the whole family experience. Varsity games are played later in the day and do not conflict with younger ages.
3) Rooms at the Clarion – I still have some rooms available at the Clarion if you want to stay at the host hotel let me know. Rooms are $79 and $89.
4) The Showcase is picking up steam the local media has assured me they will be there in full force and today I was called by ESPN about attending. This weekend I will e-mail 600 college coaches and scouts with their official invite.

More to follow,

Tim Flatt

I just opened an envelope that has been on my desk for days, postmarked Feb. 15, 2008, from "National Basketball Foundation." I had no idea who it was from and finally opened it. Inside were our player registration confirmations and t-shirt/program tickets!!! I wonder if I am the only one that did not recognize the sender? LOL....
