    I would happily put my (and the team, but don't want to speak for everyone) spot in the tourney up for grabs or in a tryout. The team should be open to anyone who thinks they can do better than we did last year. I'd welcome the competition.

    I'm pretty confident I'd still make the team.

    I couldn't make a practice on Sunday the 7th until about 7:00, maybe 6:30 if it was on the westside somewhere.

    For the following week I'll just list all the times I could possibly play:

    Monday after 5:30
    Thursday after 5:30
    Friday after 5:30
    Sunday after 6

    Unfortunately we're still not into the time of the year where it stays light later yet.

    Okay. @BonesJones ? @KingSpeed ?

    Sunday, April 7th, Mt tabor.

    You two decide the time (please not before 10 am not after 5pm). Let us know, and as many of the rest of us will be there as possible.

    However, no 7 game series. King, if you need a feeler, then get some pregame run in with him, with the rest of us. Lol.

    Consider this the first preseason tryout for anyone looking to claim a spot on the roster and if there are enough, maybe there just needs to be a S2.1 second team. Lol

    On the serious, anyone actually wanting to play on/with the team needs to consult with
    @hoopsjock @dviss1 @BonesJones

    They pay an entry fee for this, i believe, so it should be thier call if they are up for any changes or prefer a second team be created where those teamates fork up thier own entry fee. I do not know all the teals of the entry though.
    Im just a practice squad scrub...and happy like Meyers about it. Lol.

    We didn't have to pay anything. @SlyPokerDog takes care of getting us into the tourney. So like I said I would gladly welcome challengers from the forum.

    What's the weather supposed to be like that Sunday? Mt Tabor is great unless it's raining.

    If you guys did it at 3 there is an outside chance I could make it in time. I'm just really shorthanded right now at my store so it would require someone being able to come in that isn't usually available.

    @dviss1

    You posted a school in beaverton but i dont see any outdoor courts.

    Are you saying we can play in the gym?

    If so, maybe thats an option next Sunday?

    Im not a big fan of practicing indoors alot though because the courts are outdoors on concrete, so im a beleiver in practicing on the same type of terrain to get you guys the most comfortable.

    Irving Park. There are two openair courts and a covered court. It can get busy there, but the covered court has lights.

    A less nice covered court option is Alberta Park.

    I’ll play if I can just spot up in the corner and shoot 3’s. No running. No defense. Just corner 3’s.

    I know a place that's nice with a covered area.

    My schedule is about to get majorly busy.

    I'm coaching 2 teams this season.

    We have clinics on Mondays, practices on Wed and Fri.

    Saturdays are gonna be busy with game days.

    I'll be coaching all day those days.

    Sundays look good for me though.

    I'll play. I don't have any knee cartilage, but when I foul someone, they stay fouled.
