On behalf of everyone at Hall High School, we welcome you to our campus and gymnasium for this Christmas Tournament. This is the forty-fifth such event at Hall High School.

The IHSA basketball Christmas tournaments are one of the top showcases for high school athletic talent in the nation. We at Hall High School are proud to be involved with these events and wish to make them enjoyable and successful in every way.

For the duration of the tournament, put aside your concerns and pressures, relax and have run. We have learned to expect great tournament action at Hall over the past several years, and there is every indication this years field will provide more of the same.

Sportsmanship is everybody's responsibility. Sportsmanship starts on the court and extends into the bleachers and beyond. In today's increasingly competitive environment, the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat seem to more intensified than ever. Good sportsmanship is the attitude and behavior that exemplifies positive support for the interscholastic programs of the IHSA member schools, as well as the individuals who participate in such programs. People involved in all facets of the interscholastic program are expected to demonstrate respect for others and display good sportsmanship.

We hope that the fans, players, and coaches will enjoy the games and display conduct and sportsmanship of the highest order.
