If you are new to coaching or new to Jr High House League, here are some pointers:

• Games are played in area junior or senior highs. Teams warmup on the court they play on (generally a few minutes warmup time).
• We play in two mid-season tournaments: Brooklyn Park (12/12-12/14) and Maple Grove (2/13-2/15). Parents/guests will need to pay admission for each game (players are free) to pay for the gym time and officials. Also, OMGBA parents are asked to volunteer to staff the Maple Grove Tourney.
