Introduction
Do you want a chance to play and possibly win a basketball tournament with and/or against your friends? Do you want to have fun and have a chance of bringing home a medal or trophy? Then I suggest that you participate in this year's MS March Madness! "Have some fun and healthy competition!" Mr. Welby tells us. You don't even have to be good at basketball or know how to play to participate. Everyone is welcome, no matter the skill level!
How it Works
This tournament is 3 v 3. It's divided into categories for all of the grades: 6th, 7th, and 8th. This tournament occurs in the first two weeks of March, beginning March 4. Each team will play two days of the week, and it will run from 3:20 to 4:20. So if you need to take the bus home, you can make the 4:30 late bus.
Wrap up
Take advantage of this opportunity. "Sign-up sheets will be posted on the intramural board by the cafeteria and by the MS Gym." Mr. Welby informed us. You can sign up now! And if you find later that you cannot do it, you can always inform one of the PE teachers that you can't. Play and have a chance to win trophies and medals, or miss out on this fun opportunity? We’ll let you decide which one you chose. Plus, if you are in the team that wins in your grade, you get to play in the student-faculty game later in the year! Don't be afraid of trying something new. Take a risk and sign up to have a great deal of fun!
