PREVIEW: 2015 AAU SPRING CLASSIC

The boys will be in the building for the LAST tournament of the spring this weekend for the AAU Spring Classic! This event will feature 173 teams from seven different states, including a few teams from Puerto Rico! Because of the amount of teams at this event, there will be four different venues: ESPN Wide World of Sports, Orlando Sports Center, Osceola Heritage Park and Silver Spurs Arena.

Age divisions will range from 9U-19U  and will be separated into three divisions: Division I, II and III. Registration will be held on Friday, May 29th from 2pm – 9pm at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. REMINDER: A person listed as bench personnel shall register the team two (2) hours prior to your first game and all team registration shall occur at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.

Pool play will kick off on Friday at 5pm at all four venues and will carry over into early Saturday afternoon, when bracket play begins. Sunday will be exclusively for bracket play and championship games, after which the CHAMPIONS and runner ups of each division will be announced and given their awards.

Individual AAU medals and team trophies will be awarded to first and second place teams. The top four (4) finishers in each grade division in all tournaments will receive a CONDITIONAL bid into the 2015 AAU Boys Basketball National Championships. Teams that qualify for the National Championship MUST play in their District Qualifying Tournament (DQT) to validate their bid.
