CAN-AM HOOPS CLASSIC

13th Annual Basketball Tournaments for Boys and Girls

Sponsored by Anaconda Sports®, we invite you to join us for a first class event to be held in beautiful Northern New York at SUNY Potsdam and Clarkson University. Our previous events were a huge success and we anticipate a full field this year.

Each team is guaranteed four games. Boys and girls divisions will be organized by the following age groups: 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17. In addition, A & B levels in each age division will be established to allow teams of similar caliber to compete against each other. We will attempt to form A & B pools of five teams for each age group. If possible, each team will play all the respective teams in their pool.

Reservations will be accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis as the entry fees arrive. Scheduling information will be sent out after the respective camp deadlines. Players’ ages as of January 1, 2009, should be used as a guideline for entries. Please submit one entry form for each team entered.

International Competition

Invitations are being mailed to various Northeastern states in the U.S. and to the Ontario and Québec provinces of Canada. It is our expectation to have several Canadian teams in each age group.
