Weather Cancellations

If the weather stops or cancels a tournament, teams will get to select another tournament to play in. NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN.

Bracketing

Most cases, bracketing will be 2 games on Saturday and 2 games on Sunday.  Extreme situations may force us to schedule 3 games one day and 1 game on the other. 

Traveling Teams

Teams traveling to a tournament that live 2-5 hours away will automatically be given later game times on Saturday.  Rule of thumb Tournament starts at 9:00 a.m. and you live 3 hours away, your earliest game would be at 1:00 p.m. or later and on Saturday.  You’ll get earlier games on Sunday to get you out of the gym by 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. depending on how far you
travel home.

Time Requests

If teams have a time request on Saturday we can work around it, there is a $15.00 time request fee that must be included with your application.  If you call after your application is sent in, the fee is $20.00 and must be received by Friday’s mail.  If you pay at the tournament site, the fee is $30.00.  The fee for Sunday’s conflicts are $30.00 and only if we can accommodate.

Scorekeepers

Idaho Prep Basketball will provide scorekeepers for the book and the clock, but these are players from the school that we are using.  These players are doing this as a fundraiser, so we recommend that you have your own scorebook person sit at the score table to help prevent mistakes.  If problems occur, tell the scorekeeper to buzz the referees.

Gym Directions

Addresses and location for each school will be posted on our website www.Idahoprepbasketball.com along with your game schedule. 

Game Times

Coaches will be e-mailed their schedule on Wednesday the week of the tournament by 4:00 p.m. You can also go to our website www.Idahoprepbasketball.com and access your game times, locations and opponents.  You can call Wednesday between 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. or on Thursday morning 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. if you are not sure of your game times or location.

Game Schedule Teams coming to our tournaments will have their game times kept close together.  The games will be either back to back or 1 game in between.  The exception would be, if your team lives close to the gym facility within 10 to 15 minutes, your games could be possibly spread throughout the day.
