Hello Team Elevate! What a blessing to be able to practice full court again Tuesday night! As coaches, we were really pleased with what we saw from our guys last night and we are looking forward to tomorrow! We were also thinking it would be nice to have seven guys for a 4 game tournament, so Traiden from the Gunshow will be playing with us for tonight's games. Please give him and his parents a warm Elevate welcome when you see them at the games!
Action Needed Items:
1. If you did not have your son fill out the waiver form yet, please click on the link below. He cannot play unless he submits the waiver claim before the tournament. Parents do not need to fill out a waiver for themselves, but will need to write their name as a guardian when filling out the form for their son.

Other Tournament Information:
All games will be played in the gym in Troy, Idaho. The address is 107 N Main Street Troy, Idaho 83871. There are no limitations on spectators for these games, but everyone who enters the gym should wear a mask. The tournament director would also like all players to fill out a waiver form before attending the tournament. Just click on the links below and follow the directions.
The tournament fee is $395 for our team, but coach Andy didn't want our parents to have to pay more than $50, so he will pay the remaining balance. Please pay Coach Tim $50 at the gym before the first game like we have done in the past.
If you haven’t done so already, please call the Best Western University Inn in Moscow, Idaho to reserve your room at (208)882-0550. The rooms are reserved under Elevate at a team rate of $99. You will only need a room for Thursday night. They do provide a free complimentary breakfast.

Here is additional information from the tournament director:
Hello again all.........

I wanted to pass on some delicate but also firm information to teams and fans.

The past few weekends we have had issues with "trash talk" and " complaining" from players and yes, some coaches. We are doing our very best to provide as high a quality official we can. But they are NOT perfect and miss calls or make incorrect calls. We want all teams to understand that our tournament committee is encouraging a "zero tolerance" on trash talk and taunting toward opponents. Playing right now is a HUGE privilege. Our desire is to have teams at our tourneys that understand this privilege and play and coach accordingly.

Also we have had to warn and also eject fans over the course of the past few weekends. We are one of VERY FEW tournaments that allow fans. Please remind fans of this and being in our small facility is a PRIVILEGE. One we don't have to grant to all comers. If someone is unable to exercise self-control in what they say to the other team or to the officials will be asked to leave the premises.

I know, I know....downer email....LOL but let's all remember how fortunate we are to be playing and let's ENJOY this opportunity. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Fans will be allowed ( $6 per day for adult, $4 for students and Seniors $20 for families) There will be notices recommending social distancing and masks while in the gymnasium
Each player and coach is required to fill out and turn in a waiver before being allowed to participate( waiver enclosed)….ONE FOR COACHES AND ONE FOR PLAYERS
