The Sterling Invitational BB Tourney is scheduled for Jan. 20, 22 and 23. We are needing community help with keeping the scorebook, running the clock, announcing, running the ticket gate and working the pass gate. On the 20th and 22nd games in the OSAC will be at 3:00pm, 4:30 pm, 6:00 pm and 7:30 pm. On the 23rd the OSAC time slots will only be 3:00 pm and 4:30 pm and there will be 2 additional games in the South Gym at 3:00 pm and 4:30 pm, also. Your help would be greatly appreciated!
It might be easiest to work either the 2 early time slots or the 2 later time slots, though we could be flexible if needed.
