There’s more! Here’s what you’ll get when we See You at STATE!
- Players and coaches will play middle school aged teams that they’ve never faced before. We have teams traveling from all over Washington: the Puget Sound area, Olympic Peninsula, Southwestern WA, Tri Cities, Yakima and Bellingham. Of course, there’ll be some hometown teams representing Spokane also!
- Partner hotels and resorts offering discounted rate.
- Saturday and Sunday games at clean, multi-court gyms. Saturday will feature exciting pool play with Sunday bringing the magic of the semi-finals and Championship games.
- Certified referees from the Spokane Basketball Officials Association
- Paid scoreboard operators and scorebook keepers. No need for State coaches to pull visiting parent volunteers from the stands. So parents can sit back and relax (if watching your child compete in the Championship is relaxing?!)
- All of the above while enjoying the Spokane Valley – one the top tourist destinations in Washington! “Play Hooky Monday” – stay Sunday night and enjoy a family day on Monday.
